As track days become more popular, and clubs like these arrange cheap events, and street racing is publicly ridiculed by drivers and enthusiasts like us, things will improve.
We need the next generation of gearheads, who are currently in their preteens lurking autotrader for their first car, to dream about hitting the autox, the circuits, the drag strips, and becoming respected in our community. They must not dream of imitating the first few FnF movies.
Our disgust of that behavior on this forum and on all other automotive forums, at the track and at the red lights... That's what will stop street racing.

You think street racing is new?
People seem to think it started in the 90s but I am afraid that just isn't the fact.
As soon as there were 2 cars on the road at the same time street racing started. Hell for that matter as soon as there were two domesticated horses street racing became a thing!
It has always existed and always will I am afraid.
