Default Mustang + Camaro + Busy Street = Jail Time

Sorry if this is a repost...

The only thing dumber than racing on a busy street is videotaping while you're doing it:

Lesson learned the hard way. Could've been worse.

Yeah I almost totalled my car last week when a lady did the same move that tan car did in the video, and I was doing the speed limit. What pisses me off is she hauled *** while I came 3feet from hitting a street light.

I wouldn't exactly call that a race, since it looks like they were'nt accelerating but that's just semantics. It's still stupid, especially on that really busy road.

They were both on the brakes at that point, probably still speeding a bit. BUT by the way the driver in the tan car acted, they were either totally clueless, or did it intentionally, like those jackasses that love to slam on their brakes in front of a person riding a motorcycle. For crying out loud they do it to me when I drive the 'bird.

They were certainly in the wrong, but I am just as angry with the person who pulled out in front of them, either they were not paying any attention, decided they'd "teach them a lesson" or they decided to cash in for an insurance check so they could get a new ride.

Okay guys dont take this the wrong way and i in no way want to get flamed or frowned upon for this but the same thing happened to me about two years ago and i pay for it everyday with aches and pains all over my body... As well as the thought of almost killing someone or myself. I spent six days in the hospital because of this stupid act, im scared as hell to go fast now and would in no way recomend it to anyone!


Oh and poke fun at the RICER STATUS all you want, it was my first car... We know we all thought our first cars were fast lol

FROM THIS:



TO THIS IN LESS THAN 3 SECONDS FLAT:







I really dont need to hear any BS about how dumb i was because believe me i know... I feel like a jackass and i get chills everytime i look at these pictures... I am only showing this to maybe help those of you who want to try racing like an idiot.

Leave it on the track guys... Please.

that sucks. he got the worst of both worlds. loss to a stang then totalled his car. horrible just horrible. i know a lot of people race on the street but at least most of it is hwy where you dont have to worry about someone going against traffic. definitely couldve been a lot worse. on another note. looks like we'll have another parts car to buy from.

Meh, I posted then watched as it was described as if he was filming while trying to race. Kinda hard to do with a stick car. I now see a friend was filming so I retract the idea. Still lame tho IMO heh but neither here nor there in this case.

I hate the sound of the impact...it just reminds me of my accident.....I was riding down the road in my friends truck when some young kids in a lifted jeep decided they were gonna go 70 in a 35, then blow a stop sign and broad side us cause the truck to spin four times then flip onto it side in a ditch......three out of the five people were thrown from the truck inlcuding my friend who was pinned underneath it, I was knock unconscious when my head blew out the window......everyone lived thank god
