Street racing? Of course! Thats why I bought the car!
just kidding!
What Dakota? Saw an old Dodge pickup, but no Dakota?
We just had some recent deaths in the LA area from street racing. Some people out here are mentally ********, and do it in crowded streets. Personally, I am very selective about the road, time, traffic patterns, and RARELY buzz by anyone. If you get frisky, bring it down quickly, because the longer you go fast, the higher the odds are of impact. Some guys tell themselves that they can handle the speed, and its probably true in most cases. What they fail to realize, is that there are many people out on the road who are
1 F'd up physically, can't see straight, can't estimate distance at a standstill, let alone in motion.
2 Unable to anticipate the trajectory of your car, if you are going more than 10 mph faster then them.
3 Unwilling to check their blindspot as they change lanes
4 If they check their blindspot, they assume there is nothing there, but if you are going faster than the pace of traffic, you end up in their path, as they meander into your lane
5 Then theres just the spiteful, jealous people who hate you because you have a nice car, and when you get close, they cut you off, hoping to make you wreck, or at least give you static. And if you are racing, they feel all the more bold in doing so
6 On medication for their new root canal
7 Distracted by kids, phone, GPS, Combo #4, etc
8 Drunk
9 Just got laid off, and madder than a wet hornet, itching for trouble
Does knowing the above keep me from racing? Not entirely, and I won't lie. Its a lot of fun, partly because it is dangerous. Its a rush. But be careful, because its not just you who is the loose cannon, its all the mini-vans, and the mass of emotional, poorly trained, ill-equipped, fragile humanity who go from point to point half blind, spiteful, etc. who may become the wild card in your trajectory calculation, and you can't control them.
I did get one clean run on way back home from 1st gear and just destroyed him
