even those who say they will not street race or anything i can almost bet if they drive the car on the street they have done something alone while no one was looking that is considered dangerous.

Perhaps this thread would have less animosity if the OP also inserted terms
such as "cruise" or "bbq"...

Personally I get more satisfaction out of a chance race on the street (stumble across
some bikes/Slowbra etc) vs. an arranged deal but to each his own

But I understand that it's not necessarily about the track's distance, if the track isn't for you then, well, it isn't for you.

We we all don't have killers to race bikes from a highway roll

I tried to stop it from becoming a flame fest when I said to PM me if interested...

frankly i dont see how this should come as any suprise to you. its a public forum. people will post their opinions wether you want to hear them or not. not to mention the fact that you're posting about something thats frowned upon in the racing community/Eastern section and illegal to say the least. just as they need to deal with you posting this, you need to deal with the negative feedback you're getting or dont post at all.

FWIW...ive been on the road...many many moons ago and its not as safe as you guys are making it out to be. but im not here to preach about stuff i used to do myself so keep the shiney side up .

What can I say I was never one to try to please everyone....also how can you say it's frowned upon when their is a section on this board devoted to it?

So what your telling me is the "eastern section" is it's own entity and has it own beliefs and rules? Just trying to understand how a section of a board can alienate themselves from the rest of a message board....

Wait, so now those of us who actually race in sanctioned, well organized and LEGAL track racing (with a point system, payouts and all) are akin to "amateurs" or first graders and the 'not as organized' illegal street racers are the "pros" or Varsity players? LOL
I don't actually think that's what you were trying to convey there but just needed to point out the humor in what it sounded like.

I too agree that he'd be better off trying to drum up interest on a true street racing site.
