The funny thing is that NASCAR discussions always revert back to the anger over using terms like "redneck", "Bubba", "Trailer trash", etc. when NASCAR actually recognizes that this is their image.

Recently I posted this article regarding the subject and titled the thread "Redneck Rebellion in NASCAR"...here is the article http://www.indystar.com/articles/1/133887-8431-036.html

Racing IS dangerous..no matter what type. People do get hurt. That is a fact of life. If a someone who races understands the risks and takes them then that is HIS/Her decision. Not some governing body of rules.

You missed the point... no governing body = no rules = what street racing is = illegal. You aren't trying to justify illegal racing in some way are you?

I am not ashamed to admit it..yeah..I will justify street racing. It IS the purest form of racing, with experience drivers.

And again I will remind you that you are at the wrong place. No one can control what you do but if you take the time to look around and read the TOS you will realize that your venture into joining HAN to discuss and promote street racing will be fruitless.

What you are missing though is that a governing body ensures that all competitors have the same type of safety requirements met. This way everyone has a similiar chance of surviving an accident which is the highest possible chance available.

If you are trying to say that this justifies any kind of illegal street racing then you are adding in thousands of unknown quantities to make a highly unstable situation.

John he wants to promote street racing... his first post made me realize that. Maybe he didn't read the TOS.
