I was mainly referring to drag racing... lol.... but yes, I'm sure it goes far beyond chariots anyway. I was just making an example.

What do you get when you take a crappy car, a kid that cant drive, and 100 mph? Some dead who didnt deserve it. Thats what drag strips are for people. Use common sense.

So you are saying if he/she had a vette, mustang, supra, etc then it would be ok?

Once prohibition ended, they had these fast cars, and nothing to do with them, so they would drag race. The Civic comment was sarcasm you morons...And i did not say that muscle cars "never race anymore" read my post before you bash it.

And find me a video with a respectable adult who gives a shit about human life racing, and ill say you just proved me wrong, but all of your "youre dumb" comments have made you look as immature as i thought you were. All of those videos are normally either high school kids, or college kids...and neither one of those two groups are smart...or use half of the common sense God gave them. Maybe this is coming from the perspective of someone who has lost a very close friend in a drag racing accident...once you idiots go through that, then tell me how dumb I am.

Maybe you should go back and re-read your own posts

yep, muscle cars never street race.
Watch this, and tell me how many times there was a chance of those cars crashing into an innocent bystander while going down the road.

Go ahead, I'll wait for you.

I never said that my friend was an innocent bystander standing on the street...he was in the fucking race.
