Geeez that made my stomach turn just reading it.

 

We used to drag out on public streets years ago however it was in a desolate area where oncoming cars can be seen for miles.Though that doesn't make it right we always told each other even back then that we would only put ourselves in danger because we had friends who had died while racing and if we were going to lose it we weren't taking anyone with us.

 

Hopefully they can find the guy with the Eclipse because he should have to face some form of punishment even though it will never amount to the damage that he and the Camaro helped cause.

If you go on to read the rest of the thread Frank they found the eclipse driver he has been charged and is out on bail until trial starts

 

Hope they nail both the fuc*ers to the wall

Ahh I just read the first few responses.

 

Good that they found him and like I said before,no punishment can be too severe for that IMO.

wow that guy is from NW indiana.  I emailed him to find out where it happened wonder if it was close i dont remember hearing anything about this (not to say it didnt happen i just missed the news).  

 

Not to long ago a ricer was racing someone and cut in front of a semi.  Semi crashed (tanker) and the guy in the car went up in flames.  Road was closed for almost 2 days

What happened is a horribly ugly thing.  But whats even worse, is retards just like those that caused that accident will continue to do what they do on the streets.  All because they want to show the world how "fast" that little V-Tec piece of s*%t really isnt!  (I know there are a lot of people on the board that may or may not do this.  But at least Im sure most of you have the common sense to do it on an empty street)  I cant say I have seen something as bad as the gentlman on the other site did.  But, I have seen that happen before and it aint pretty.

Not racing, but we had some guy put his foreign pos on its roof last year after he got into an argument with his ex when she wouldn't take him back.  She ended up having the skin peeled off the top of 1 of her hands.  He wasn't injured...too stiff probably.  Tagged him for DUI, but I think he refused when I had him at the station.  Just shows what can happen when people lose their common sense and good judgement.(if they had it in the first place)

Im gonna have to do it I guess...

   

 

This thread is one of those that poeple start against street racing (Im not condoning it, BTW) Ive seen it already posted on nearly every message board that is auto related.. Not that anything like that has never happened, and not that street racing hasnt caused horrific accidents, but several poeple from that place wherever that supposedly happened call BS because they heard nothing of the sort happening anywhere near them... Bogus story, although it does make you think...

 

If its real, I want a link to a press release about it... I didnt find anything even close to that in any Counties news anywhere in Indiana (where the guy is from who first posted it)...
