That's why I refuse to race bikes with two people on them. She may not have even wanted to race and just couldn't say no. Very sad.

"They hype up their stunts on the highway", as told by dumpster **** scumbag gizz recepticle reporter. Its all the same song and dance. YOU are the devil..............you kill people...........lets do a special report on drivers over the age of 65 and asian drivers. I bet they amount to atleast 145% of the accidents on the road. "Sherry Peterpuffer reporting, life at the local walmart supercenter". "The scene of the accident as 74 year old Margene Hutenanny drives over girl scout troup of 14 and a toys for tots drop off center". "Damage estimated in the 100's of thousands". "Margene was asked soon after the wreck what happened"? She could only mudder ramblings of having poopy britches and needing food for her 35 cats".

i would harrass the news station about them using a video of you racing someone on a closed street that you rented for the night in mexico. then use her picture in a video titled "dumb bitches and how to avoid them".

So can they take my video like that and use it legally without my consent? or is it because it’s on YouTube its open to everyone. I don't really care I'm just curious. I guess if you think about it they used my video to help them make money.
Even if your video is copyrighted, they can use it, because they are reporting news.

But that is kinda cool your car is on tv. Not the best publicity, but if it works for you...

hahahahaha that was so great and true. street racing is gay bc of the stupid amount of ricers that do it. I once spent 20 min auguring that i didn't have a super charger that was my intake manifold. The kid with the civic really thought that my ls1 intake manifold was a super charger. thats why people get hurt doing it.... stupid people.

theres no way around it lol we had an industrial road next to the hernando airport over here no buildings and no cars(maybe one lost old person) that was exactly a 1/8 mile but after a while cops caught on and now we have no where but the streets. but why harass us 2-3 miles away from civilization back on an empty road?

Seems like they just needed something to put on the air because they had nothing else. Between the crown vic that was racing nobody and the bike that crashed doing 140 mph, they have nothing to do with street racing so they were adding more **** in there to make street racers look worse. I would be curious to see some stats about the number of people that die in street races vs. people that die for other reasons. I know the numbers arent as high so why are they making a fuss. Around here cops always break up the races even though everyone is far away from street where people drive often.

I would be pissed too about them showing your video but its not like you can call in and say anything because they will know it was you and its illegal. Do what you said and lay low for a while.

somebody had something in their sig over at SVTPerformance that said that coconuts falling from palm trees kill more people each year than street races.

Werd, good call.

Like I said, I don't really care, just wondering.

As for the publicity, that doesn't really matter to me, I find it amusing that they take computer rendered footage from closed streets in Mexico and say were "street racing"

Because it was convenient. They have an agenda to push.

Which is why I distrust half of everything I see on the news and am suspicious of the other half.
