Thats 10 pages easy if you have any clue how to write a paper. What grade level is this for? I could whip out a 10 pager in a days time with that list. Break it down into each topic...i think there are 9 listed. You can get about a page each, give or take, and then a page for intro and conclusion and youre there. Research each topic in relatation to street racing...get statistics online, old newspaper and magazine articles, personal accounts and eye witness accounts(make them up if you have no friends), and find police stats on arrests made. Easy paper man. Good luck with it.

Don't forget the increase to your car insurance if they find out you are racing or wreck due to that. Also breaking parts that could be expensive on your car (that's if its a mustang) lol no offense to any stang owners

i cant write it for you...........hell i didnt even write my senior paper........payed my sister

also the conclusion should deal with going a track to race........its safer yada yada yada......pay a small price to run as many time as you want.....there is EMS and cops there for safety........but you can still wreck and your insurance is going to not going to pay and may dump your ***......there is no win/win........the safest thing to do is not race.......buy a car how safe it is and not its looks or speed.........live at home till your 40....dont go out and party.............BE A HERMIT............sorry kinda got off track

Definitely...double space, shrink the margins, size 12 font, etc.

If it were me, I would break it down into sections (aka outline).
Here's an off-the-cuff example:
  • Legal Ramifications
  • Moral Ramifications
  • Financial Ramifications
Under each section, have sub-topics...
  • Legal Ramifications
- Car impounded
- Driver's lisence revoked
  • Financial Ramifications
- Effects on car insurance.
- Cost to get the car back (if possible)

My 2 cents.

Biggest problem is that if you dont hook and you chase, its still a race.

So make SURE you have the right rubber! Millions of innocent streetracers succumb to this, I hear 60 minutes will be doing a feature soon.

Dont forget the financial ramifications such as losing and having to pay up some $$ for being slow or not hooking.
