Brazoria County has several "street cars" sitting in the garage under car covers that welcome any challenge.

Even if LMR had won a race, who isn't to say that clever video editing would have made them appear to lose? The producers can make the story end however they wish. Drama attracts viewers, so it isn't a surprise that is what was highlighted here.

That's the best way to look at it.Been around Steven and josh for years and never sane were he made anybody made enuff to swing on him so in my eyes it was staged.

Chase isn't a race, they said if you jump you lose, period. Also no prep means you can do a burnout in your choice of traction compound, that's it. Not spray the whole 660' with sprayers and torches. Either way, LMR didn't look good IMO.

Well **** why wouldn't everybody jump in that case? As the person not jumping it all happens so fast it's natural instinct to just go whether you think they left early or not

A chase is a race from a roll maybe. From a dig it's just a loss.

I liked watching it. Was just neat to see cars and people I know on TV.

If you are notorious for jumping, you don't think your not gonna lose racing someone that knows your gonna jump? He will sit there and watch. And win.

All the street races I have been to if you chase then you raced and it counted. If someone jumped and the other car just sat there then it didnt count and the car that jumped would have to back up. Every area has there own rules and each car crowd seems to have there own way of street racing.

I never would have believed that until I was around the filming of a reality. I was there and saw what really happened yet with some very creative editing they were able to make the show look completely different just by piecing different clips together and adding music etc.

That's the kicker, they showed up on their show, played by their rules, and raced their race. Had an outsider won that would have been like killing off Tom Cruise in the opening scene of Top Gun.

Chase is a race unless specified. Boom jump you lose. I won't ever race without the jump you lose. A good street racer sometimes doesn't even have to race in a sense.
