Yup. I remember that, plus the kid in South Beach who nailed a tree a few months ago, killing himself and a passenger.
The cops are really cracking down on streetracing here. I've seen cars being hauled up on flatbeds and taken away from the drivers who were pulled over. Some guy recently was convicted and sentenced to 30 years for vehicular manslaughter. That's some serious ****.

I'm pretty sure the driver of the other bike will be charged with involuntary vehicular manslaughter...scary stuff. That's the problem with street racing...even if you are careful, if the idiot you're racing hurts someone you'll be charged too.

Hey, that's true about this thing they call "growing up": it doesn't go well with street racing. But damn!!! what fun it is. I still occasionally go to the races but I'm hard pressed to do anything at all.

Except early on the weekends by myself or late in the eve. Alas, I once almost rammed an import that was driving with ONE headlight only, no tail lights! He was driving only a few miles slower than me too!

Cool deal man, thanks for bringing that up. cause we do need to keep it safe out there..............

I was out hunting last night as i do every saturday night, it was late/early (around 2:00am) and the only cars on the street were street racers. well as i was coming to this huge intersection i could see ambulance, firefighter lights and what not, and as i passed by i seen that it was a little honda totatly crushed from the passenger side, it just gave me that gut feeling, so i called off the hunting for rest of the night.....
