With such heavy impending penalties why would anyone set themselves up for what seems imminent trouble? Everyone's got a hobby, And this just happens to be mine. Why? Because it gets your blood flowing to your head, you get this amazing rush when you know you just whupped up on that Civic next to you. Hardcore streetracers enjoy every minute of it, and they love the risk involved, but our crew does it because its a hobby of all of ours that brings us all together as friends. We meet new people every time we go out there. People get involved in this sport for the same reason they jump out of planes or climb mountains. there are no words to describe the feeling of pushing a car to its limits. But do some racers take their search for thrill too far? .
Some say yes, but I streetrace because the only 2 legal tracks I can go to are overcrowded, 2-4 hours away, and rarely open. When I started racing, there were always people who would do things to show off, burn tires, race around a parking lot, blare their systems. But after getting adjusted to everything I found that there were other groups that tried to stay away from those people. The message? Street racers still worry about the safety of themselves and others. We wanted safer racing, if people can believe that, and not to be associated with those who were idiots about it. Many racers share the same opinion. I'm not going to say that the danger doesn't thrill me, it does. But what is thrilling is when you're active in the sport responsibly. When you see someone doing something that is just plain stupid, it takes all the thrill out of racing, what racers don't like is that those people are the only ones who get any recognition. It seems that despite what many believe to be true about street racers isn't so. Many aren't into the sport just to act dangerously, they do it for the rush, they don't like to be seen as punks with fast cars, and they don't like those who give them a bad name.
