Re: Maryland Street Race Kills 7!
another reason why people race on the street and not the track is because of the retarded rules at the track. if your car passes certain time and speed criteria you are required to have certain things installed in and on your car and self. if these are "street cars" you still need 05 or better certified helmet, 8+ point cages, fire retardant suit, engine gurdles/scatter shields, chutes, and nhra race license, ect. i say this because i know people that have and are going through this, you will 1 pass with a 9 second street car then they want to tech your car again, even at test and tunes. but yet a bike can go as fast as it wants and they only are required to have leather suits and walmart motorcycle helmets. now how fucking fair is that and people wonder why people street race and don't go to the track. if you have a slow car then that isn't a problem, go to the track.
