Get bolt cutters, open a gate, and race down the runway at midway.

Tool.

yea i don't think people would be posting exact streets if they were racing on the streets on the internet. just an easy way for cops to find out about spots.

Go to RSD. Its once a month I think or go to street car chaos and you will have all the racing you can handle. Dont race on the street noone does it and everyone goes to RSD or SCC

D-road is gonna suck this year...I know a few cops that work that district and they said to stay out for the year because they've gotta start writing tickets.

Yea man we waited for like an extra 15 min at the cruise. Then we kinda figured that was you up at Doty haha. Yea I was so happy you beat that white blown mustang. Not bad for stock!

I got to smoke a Goat saturday but You should have seen the kick *** race between me and the O.P. . He gave me a car length and let me get the jump and started reeling me in after fishtailing at like 110mph+ . He should take it to the track, he'll be able to get traction off the line there. He was actually cool enough to run me just for fun, instead of the usual guys who assume you're a p***y cause youre not puttin money up

Whats done the your car O.P.? Yea I raced that pewter z28 (not sure who he is on here but I know hes on here) and we just raced for fun. We got tired of seeing the ricers and that white mustang run so were like **** it lets put on a show.

Thats when that fucked car pulled out in front of me. I had like 1.5 lengths on the z28 (he says) luckily cuz the car pulled out and I hadta swerve over. My heart STOPPED! It was only me and LS184 up there otherwise I wanted to talk some sense into the ******! Kinda leary about racing there again after that.

I dont remeber seeing that either and i was their till about 3am, and also had 4 runs that night. I would like to be able to find a better place where people actualy do meet up but they are getting very scarce. It seems like the southshide of stony is the only way your gonna get a guaranteed crowd and races.
