1. You take a risk just being alive. Going to a street race and not standing behind any type of barrier is just stupid.

2. The sedan was more than likely not involved in the street race.. yet for some reason there is less information on the driver and his intoxicated/sober condition than the event itself.

3. Sounds like they want to twist this as something that the street racers are responsible.

Not enough information to make a solid judgement of the incident.

My condolences to the family's who lost loved ones... But standing on the side of the road in the middle of the night is never a good idea.

WHOA!? Now they've updated more... they're saying the white crown vic we see wasn't even racing, but some fucking moron without his lights on?!? How the hell are they going to classify it as a "street-race crash" god, it's so hard to be a liberal some days, CNN is BS sometimes.

That white Crown Vic probably was trying to catch up to the racers that were racing. I came out there 2 weeks ago to watch and saw alot of People with their crown vics and old BOX cars TRYING to be stupid and mess with people who have nicely moddified cars.

The Crown Vic Must have been doing something really stupid to get attention and crashed into those people.

My point is It wasn't a street racing crash! THOSE DAMN CROWN VIC's piss me off and don't need to be making shit hot at spots where people race.

Yes Street racing is illegal but at the same time people have been racing there for years and The older heads do try to keep it relitively controlled but DUMBASS like those guys who be driving those box cars wanna be COP CARS....I just don't get it. People Die because of someone's Stupidity. Fucking bastards...

My condolenses to All family's!

May god be with you...

So... don't race there?

those people that were killed were all there at the races, knew the possible danger, but continued to stand on the side of the road. IMO standing onthe sides of drag races to watch is suicidal.
