"Picture this. I'm 27 years old and I live with my Mom. I can build a 300-400hp car for 2 grand. My steering wheel is on the wrong side, I drive like a moron, and I'm a ******* ******."

the car around the middle marker that they were showing that was disintigrated and hit a light pole, that was a 98 Vette. Look at the rims (98) and then you could see the side wheel vent.
Anywho, I'm a street racer yo...

I completely agree with you guys. I'm young, but I'm not dumb like that. That is just plain retarded and very dangerous. Yeah, they just have to pick that guy for the interview. Disgraces us all.

Anyone else notice that all the recognizable cars in the wrecks were domestics? There was the Mustang, and the C5. Why didn't they show any of those "tuners" after their wrecks?

They do, however, break down quite often.

that WAS pretty biased ill agree to that. honestly tho they make it out to be some huge problem. honestly i cant count very many videos like the ones they aired. in fact i cant remember the last time i saw one like that. the reason its "a big problem" is because of all the media attention.
and FWIW 350-400whp in that crx would waste a lot of cars on this site.

a cars life is determined by how well it is taken care of, and ricers have a bad habit of coming up short on the "caring for their car" part.
Besides, I'd take an Escort or Cavalier over a Civic any day.

Since StreetFire is hosting so many videos of people racing (though none are as freaking retarded as those ******** they had on Dateline) I fealt it was our duty to put together a Public Service Announcement on this topic.
This is serious stuff folks.
