broad street is a sweet place to chill. its been a while since ive been up there. its like 2 hours from me. everyone still hang out at RMP?

[spike_um]

I haven't been to RPM yet. It looks like most people hang out at a huge new target on broad, that and cruise up and down the street.
Staunton sounds cool, i wanna go there one of these days. Where do you all chill there?

staunton is ok. the cops have gotten really bad in the last couple months. my friend got his car towed in the middle of the day. most of the people chill up on Ames hill. until u get ran off. then we all go to Sheetz. they dont run us off there cause they like the business we give them. all they say is if we make a mess then clean it up. one place i really like to cruise at is Lynchburg

This is an OLD street racing spot, been used since the 60's. 33 goes from va to wva lots of racers have died here over the years. The races were traditionally very early in the morning 2-4am........Very dumb

I knew it would happen sooner or later.....I am pretty sure from what I have heard that one of the victims died....

riceboys and girls....

idiotic and retarded statement.....please don't bring ur BS here....happens everyday....

Get over yourself dude. Someone freakin died here---and a jackass RICEGIRL_STREETRACER was to blame.....as was the RICEBOY--STREETRACER she was racing agianst.

If it makes you feel better call them streetracers but fact is they were both ricers. I have seen both of them running around before and dozens of other ricers running around town crashing for the last 8 years....No, they arent the only ones who crash or injure innocent bystanders but, they are the only group that consistently drive like buffoons as a group and as individuals..........

What "we" dont need around here is a passe attitude towards people getting killed from illegal racing.

[BLU CIVIC]

people get killed walking across the street......people get killed in legal races, people get killed in illegal races.....i never said that the tards racing on the street were right for racing....but ur bringing up this subject IN THE WRONG THREAD. if u wanted to make a point....u should have started ur own thread and not bring back a thread from November

[jboss]

This thread is primarily about racing in and around harrisonburg VA....The accident in the article took place in harrisonburg VA..... on the same road that people were talking about racing on no less. Route 33

So, Why should I post it in a new thread and link it to this thread when I can put it here in one convienent place for everyone to read and think about???

People die doing stupid things everyday---no doubt about that. People die doing totally mundane things everyday---no doubt about that. But, when people die because you want to race your car on the street that is just stupid. You might just start to get it when someone you know and love gets killed by someone being stupid.

The point of the story is that even at 3:30am in a relatively small town on a sunday night......there is still a risk to innocent bystanders from streetracing. If you do something stupid that only endagers yourself then fine but when you put other peoples lives at risk you have overstepped your territory.

Look, people starve to death everyday under the tyranical rule of corrupt leaders. Kids are abused and beaten everyday at the hands of bad parents. But that doesnt make it ok just because it happens everyday. Sure, sh*t happens but it doesnt always have to.

[BLU CIVIC]

as i say again...if u wanted to get the word out....should have started a new thread....there is a reason noone posted in this thread since 11-22-03.....the subject is over and done with.....if u wanted to educated people on the accident and the "ricers" racing then make a new thread.

I live in Chantilly Va and know the scene here pretty well, it's useless... NO Radar, no nothing, soo many f-ing unmarked cop cars. I've seen a camaro race another car then turn on his lights... Now that sucks! so I wouldnt race anywhere especially not in fairfax county. It's a commonwealth meaning that there are about 30 aging blind people who decide the fates of everybody else. Stay clear of VA.
