That's stupid to take someone's car. Just pull their license for a couple years, probation/jail time, whatever

I agree 100%, damn, I was taking my daughter to cheerleading practice. I kid you not, I was on the throttle 50-60% tops, soon as the car shifted, damn wheels got loose. Damn cop gave me a ticket. I had the radio on, and really didn't think it would of let loose. He gave me the ticket, rofl. I thought it was funny. He was nasty about it. I guess he thought I was some young kid. I looked at him, like pathetic. Yeap, I got no accidents and a no points for 15 years. I laughed so hard, boy he wasn't happy. Oh well, 2800 stall, shift kit with 3.93s, I will have to be a little easier on the throttle, rofl. Way to much!

These morons did ruin it for all of us.

those dudes were asshats
i don't see how you can even consider what they were doing as racing.

if a burn out is reckless driving, i think we need to change the law. burnout should not be in the same ballpark as weaving through traffic at twice the speed of other cars.

omg, those guys suck so bad!!!

The law does need to change.

I thought burnouts were classified as exhibition of acceleration. Why shoud that even be a law anyway? I swear...

YAY FOR AUTHORITARIANISM!!!

cause if it wasnt a law those ricers would get into a real car and try a burn out and probably slide right into someone during rush hour traffic. keep in mind just because we know what we are doing in our cars, doesnt mean every other dip **** on the road does too. case proven with the first thread.

I think there should be discretion with it. If there are no cars nearby, then just, "knock it off buddy."

you can thank Universal Studios for the making of that video.


I use to have fun on the streets all the time, and there would always be some tool that had to ruin it for everyone.

Then they came out with a movie about it and now there are a whole bunch of tools and racer wannabes that can't control a 15sec grocery getter. Freakin pathetic!
I hate these people with a passion, for ruining a good past time. a couple of years ago the cops would give you free passes to the drag strip along with your ticket when they caught you speeding, Now you go to jail. You can't even hang out in parking lots any more with out the cops giving you a bunch of crap.

I refuse to see or donate my money to any movie that contributes to funding this kind of action because of the behavior that is causes, and the harrassment the people with real sports cars have to deal with. Its a shame that these spikey haired little brats that buy every part, and sticker from autozone had to ruin it for the people that enjoyed it. If i see another four door civic with neons and a whale tail that sticks 3 feet off of the b ack end i am going to go mental on the driver!!!!!

Reminds me of this accident we seen a couple months ago. We were behind a riced out Integra in the Z06, we were getting ready to get on the freeway and as we go up the onramp he had it floored but obviously wasnt moving to fast, so my wife floors it and passes him and gets maybe 10 cars or so on him then starts to cruise in the middle lane. I was keeping an eye on him and I told my wife here comes a ricer fly by, sure enough he comes flying by us at like 100 mph and gets like 5-6 cars ahead of us and I dont know what he did or what he was thinking, but he switched lanes fast and I dont know if he clipped someone or just lost control, but he started spinning and went from the slow lane across to the fast lane and hit the concrete center divider. We pulled over to make sure he was ok, he didnt know what happened, I had to pick up his carbon fiber hood and get it out of the center of the freeway. Lol, one guy drove by real slow and asked the guy if he was ok, the guy said im ok and then the guy that was driving by said well thats what you get for street racing, lol we were like wtf...what was he racing his shadow But yeah sometimes I dont know what these guys are thinking.

Wow seeing people cutting cars really pisses me off. If kids were pulling **** like that on the street and hit someone i knew that was just inocently driving, they would be begging to go to jail to get away from me. These kids shouldnt leave that house without a human escort and a helmet.
