No. The point of this thread is that most of us are smart enough to not fall for the challenges. Apparently some are not that bright.
That sub section title applies to all threads in the sub section so it is relevant. Once again you missed the point that this is an ANTI street racing topic.

I'm not even arguing that my post didn't violate the "no street racing" rule. My point is more that there are tons of others in this thread basically admitting to the same thing. The whole thread has people admitting to street racing. To call this an "anti-street racing" thread is a bit revisionist if you ask me lol. If the mods want to ban me for my post, fine I'll accept that even if I think its a bit uptight. I would just think the rule would enforced equally to all others in this thread who have also admitted to accepting challenges. I don't see this level of backlash against StraightOuttaCanadaEh when he essentially did the same thing last month lol.

Street racing is not what the movies make it. I don't give a flying fuck if street racing drivers kill themselves since it was their call but most of the casualties of this activity are not the drivers. The victims are the innocent families in the minivan that get hit at high speed or the women and children minding their own business on the sidewalk that get creamed by out of control cars. You want to talk about your petty victories at street racing take it to Facebook where the other self indulgent teens hangout.

I wasn't trying to brag about a victory lol. All I said was that I kept up with the biker that challenged me, which surprised me. I figured he would just pull away from me, and he didn't. At the end of the day, I was just sharing a story about getting challenged to a race in a thread about sharing stories about getting challenged to a race.
And you can save me the sob stories about the victims of street racing lol. I think you're under the impression that I'm advocating street racing or arguing that what I was doing wasn't stupid or dangerous, and that simply isn't the case. Granted, I do believe that a highway pull like that with nobody else around, in a non-residential area is basically harmless to anyone but myself and the dude that challenged me, but I'm not deluded into thinking I wasn't really street racing or anything like that.
For the third time, calm down, deputy.
