I love my car too much and respect the value of human life to be racing it on the open street, that's just immature of people.

Along with this, there was also a pedestrian killed in Orange, in a cross walk. Car is said to have dark tinted windows, and chrome rims.....Driver stopped briefly, then fled. We all know what the implication is here.......A 13 year old on a skateboard killed......
And people wonder why our cars are Cop magnets???
Gotta think people, gotta think.......

Same here in Orlando...
University blvd. and hwy 50 by the College (UCF).
More people are dying on those 2 roads alone,than the rest of the town put together.
I feel bad for the woman and her kid but it goes to show that Japmobiles are not even close to be safe in the event of a crash. Don't care what consumer report says or anybody else. It's just a fact.
But after all, those camrys are so wonderful

What kind of horse sense logic is that? I don't think that even your beloved Stang would fair very well being hit head on at over 90mph, then followed up by being rear ended a moment later by the F150 behind you!By the way, those Camry's will far outlast your beloved Stang. We sold a 94 Camry V6 XLE last year that had over 300,000 on the odometer, and had been tuned up twice and was on it's second timing belt. When sold, it still had compression above 90 on all cylinders.

RE: Racing related deaths
That's horrible!!!.....But trying to tell people not to do it, is like talking to a glass of water, it falls on deaf ears. People know that they shouldn't drink and drive, but day after day, we hear about the effects of drunk driving. It's the same thing with Street Racing........"It won't happen to me"....it'll happen to the"other guy", but Remember this.... "To the other guy, you're the other guy".
