Well, when you race on the streets, you have to know what the chances are, because I guarentee before you floor it or give it the go, you look around for cops. So you know your in the wrong, but it does suck the consequences are so severe, but I guess its better than death!

Re: California Cracks Down on Illegal Street Racing
I lived in so-cal for years
all the stricter laws do is make everyone run
everyone runs....if your girlfriend is watching in her ford ranger, you can bet your ass she is running too.
also, you can have your car srushed for having a jdm or illeagly (emissions) modified car.
everthing has to have a CARB sticker or its hot.
jdm engine? car crushed or sezed.
non carb turbo kit? the same.
non-carb exhaust? 2700$ ticket
we all kept all of our stock parts , and had stock engines in the garage if we got our hoods popped so we could swap it all back to pass the state ref.
it sucks. You really need to have deep pockets to even modify a street car in cali because carb parts are so expensive. So everyone just runs.

Re: California Cracks Down on Illegal Street Racing
Haha, very true. So many times I would go to the runs in my Camry, just because I was so scared I'd get pulled over just for being in the area. But like you said, when the cops came, everyone ran. Whether you were driving a Toyota Supra, or a Toyota Camry. That was back in '01 though.
...damn I miss Cali...
