I had my sil80 in 2002-2004(fully built sr20 hks turbo etc) and that car never touched a track ever and I spent hella $$$ on that car I just use the car for DD and for occasional stop light to stop light race, Going to local 240sx meets(Importfanatix.com),etc(never even entered a show car). Even now I dont think I would track my car still but I just want the car to be WELL Equipped just in case I feel like doing that. Some of you may think thats crazy but out here in NY (Queens, Brooklyn) people tend to drag race for $$$$ more often in my option rather than tracking...I dont know any people that autox and/or drift/grip etc (not including forum people) |
I got nothing against some quick driving, and gear shifts from one light to the next... I've done it. However street racing is just the act of a total douche. Period. I'm not saying you are, but really what would you get out of it if you did do it? By street racing I mean excessive speed, running lights, weaving in and out of traffic etc. I just hate it when people build a car with that in mind, since all they're doing is preparing to commit an act that will be putting someone elses life in danger.
This is getting off-topic though, so I'm done. haha
