lol, the cost of the cab ride home will look cheap compared to what it'll cost to get your car back out of impound.

although the impound is a valid point, i have been out there multiple weekends, and have not seen one cop. we don't get harrased out there. the only time we get problems is when we're loitering in the middle of town. once we leave to go race, there is no more problems.

Don't fall into a false sense of security - RCSD/CHP know what's going on and it's not a question of IF they bust it up, but WHEN. Cops have been known to read these boards too.

Naw, as I've said before, I'm no cop and I'm not spying on anyone. If I were spying, I certainly wouldn't be commenting negatively as I have been about the subject. I'd need a good turn-out for a good bust, no?
