there are a number of races in the streetracing world.
Here in Portugal, we have these : --
first , and the most popular - Vasco da Gama bridge ...
It's the biggest bridge in Europe, with a 11 mile, 3 lane straight
It's been said that when the night comes, there is no one there.
WRONG
I used to race there, and there are cars, in a race you pass about 5 to 6 cars on the bridge.
That is 5 or 6 family's that can have their loved one's killed by some stupid kid ... so off course
i dont agree with this kind of streeracing.
next , the stoplight dragracing ...
Again, you are the one that risk the life of other people on the road -
dont do it
next, the race made at night between a group of people ...
Again, you are the one that risk the life of other people on the road -
dont do it
the last example ... You talk to a friend, someone that u know to have a decent driving skill. You get together at night and roll off to a nearby Factory zone.
No one goes to this road, since it goes only to the factory and factory's are closed at night ( at least here in Portugal )
You get your car next to his, @ a given time you and your friend give it all ur car's have , and floor it ... you race along the straight, reach the curve , brake, downshift , look in the mirrors , if it's safe you take the curve at highspeed ( or not, depending on your car ... hehehe ) . you reach another straight and by the end of it u brake both your cars .
Who did you risk ?
No one except you and your friend .
Remember that your friend could have pulled off even at the talk , not to mention when u get the cars side-by-side, when u reach the curve...
This is not perfect, but life isnt perfect.
U can live a 99% secure life, and get run over by a drunk redlighter ...
Allways try to not risk anyone else, that is the rule
