It's maybe an hour and a half away, big deal; it takes longer to get across the damn city!!
omg...it's oval....how boring huh? ;)
I know what you're saying but that doesn't make it right.
Cars can go out of control and when they do, it's now a legitimate weapon.
We certainly don't need to be encouraging it just because they didn't get caught.
That's just re-enforcing their asshat-ism.
One day they WILL make the wrong judgement call and someone will get really hurt or die.
All because there were no corrections in their behaviour. |
hour and half is too far. oval...boring yes! :p Most peoples interests are lapping(+ auto x ) and drag racing.
i agree that they shouldnt encourage it but itll never go away. We woudl be better off having better driver training then making this a crimial offence. That doesnt mean you shoudlnt get in trouble if you get caught but you shouldnt get a record for it.
whats drifting? are you kidding? :crazy: |

Controlled sliding that looks out-of-control. |

In principle I guess I agree with it. I've been driving to and fro KW, and Ottawa, MTL, and enugh times I've seen stupidity. Granted a highway may not be the best place, but still it is much better than rural streets. Several times in the last two summers my brother and I literally had to jump off the street, while ty civic and a Volvo zoomed by my house doing freaking 90 in a 40 zone, literally 20 meters from an intersection. And these are completely suburban, two lane little streets. I'm sick of these stupid ricers. Too many people out there are peeling out on their mommies and daddies cars, and too many econoboxes with 5inch exhaust tips. These people just irritate me to no end.
I guess its for this reason I say I agree with it in principle, because I don't believe it will do much to curb this kind of stupidity. |

| ^ They're not too good. Skyline went over the curb; they were barely ever parallel, and the only time they got close to each other they weren't sideways. The other car is an S15 Silvia btw. |

drifting isnt so hard btw, especially with the cars that are set up to drift. its actually harder to do it in a stock car, then those mad tyte jdm ones. Now obviously you need some skill and doing it with others is harder, but its not THAT hard.
|
practice for sure. My miata's stock and my old pirelli's needed a change so that's when I messed around with drifting. I just worry too much about turning into my car into some guy's lawn ornament. I got to treat her right :toocool: |

im surprised i didnt hear
[Jayx1] this law is bogus, its taking away people's freedom to do what they want in their cars, whats next, speed limiters at 100 km/h, bans on car modifications, when will it end?[/Jayx1]
etc.... |
Personal freedom huh? Really?
Why do we have speed traps on 400 series highways that are limited to 100 km/hr then? :conf:
Where's our personal freedom there? |

My opinion is that this is the purpose of this law. |

harper shakes his sons hand when he goes to school.
as for street racing, its a morons "sport" that put innocent lives at stake, there are places to race, legally. But then that wouldn't be "street" racing.
but harper is still the true moron. |
