its hard to feel sorry for street racers that die. especially in as something as dumb as a truck...what were they thinking? i mean everyone plays around on the street from time to time but to take two slow *** vehicles like that and wind up wrecking each other(and dying)...thats just stupid.

maybe you should rethink that whole..."slow *** vehicles like that ".... frase you said, street racing is too dangerous and I have alot to lose. I keep it at the track and even there it is unsafe..

this is a pretty dumb ignorant comment. So you don't feel bad for them because the weren't in some fast exotic car?? and BTW there's tons of trucks out there that will smoke your cammed camaro easily...

no thats not what i meant at all. but i was assuming they were slow...but what i was trying to get at is how do u lose control of something as slow as a mostly stock truck. again i was assuming, but **** me right? cuz like .001% of all the trucks out there are actually fast. i must be an *******

p.s. i don't give a **** who is faster than me, my car gives me a hard on and that's all i care about.

There are quite a few kids at school with nice trucks and we all like to have fun. I think it's stupid also but when I really think about it, it could have be you or me in there. I ride in my friends truck's all the time and we'll mess with people. Who knows, sometimes **** happens and you wreck.

Drinking and Driving = Bad **** will happen. I have pulled out more people than I care to remember that have been drinking and driving and were just trying to make it home. Now mix in possibly triple digit speeds and a vehicle that handles like a wagon.

i dont think that was his point. but more than 85% of the trucks in houston are basically stock or mild bolt on's.

atleast they only hurt themselves and not innocent people that just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time... i might have had a little more sympathy for them if they hadn't been drinking but once that comes into play then all the pity goes out the window

Alcohol played a HUGE role in this accident. This was a street race,and no one can deny this, whoever or whatever the case is, two vehicles were speeding down the service rd. My buddy arrived in the scene about an hour later(south houston PD).. according to & by one eye witness, these guys were traveling in excess of 80 or so before even getting to the intersection of college/service rd.. One of them must have been impared,because they struct a cement shoulder brock,over corrected,hit the truck he was racing, and sending them straight to the poles with no brakes applied.. the results and consequences from alcohol as well, as one of the groups were coming from a club called RODEO (according to HPD/SHPD).. 4 people dead.. And from what i saw was not a good sight..
