2 fast 2 furious had a sequel? No wonder there are more ricers than ever before!

Damn this board moves fast...by the time I posted this someone else already said the same thing.


And not that I fully condone "street racing" but isn't it the choice of life or death for those involved? If they know the risks and wanna die, that is their choice to play with.

They even blamed the two kids that died on street racing, but quickly and quietly said it was "still under investigation." Dumbasses...:bbb:

The news information media is full of holes, gaps, and BS, and will be the downfall of this country.

A whole 8 people dead from racing so far to date since the new law came into affect? Wow That's probably 1/10 of all the people that have died in ONE night over there in las angeles. What morons.

the more expensive ones probably become police cruisers, auctioned off or the police commissioner kept it as his daily driver

I wish they'd refer to it as "street racing" and not "drag racing". Drag racing is an organized sport. Not a big deal, but it get's under my skin and gives those of us who participate in the actual sport a bad name...

You were racing. The bank knows it, and had you wrecked, they would be saddled with the bill. So why would they see it any differently if the car is crushed?

Either way, you end up paying for the car.

Did you see the video?
She called it a Mustang

Also, they said there is a legal process to go through to get the car back, but SOME cars can end up getting crushed.

you can still pull parts off a wrecked car or put it back together.but crushed?i think a bank would take door number one.plus if i were a bank i would want the car back and get more money,if i was a bank i would sue just because of that.

Actually, if you pay attention, the car was PURCHASED at an auction, if the bank was owed money the money from the auction would go to them... Then the car can be crushed by the purchaser who donated the car to the state.

...those thing are a dime a dozen. Every time I see one they are driven by some billy with faded purple bubbled tint, rusted slant-cut duals pouring smoke and cracked T-tops.
