Take a hint from that.
Ok but if what your saying is true then how come almost every kill section (excluding this one) has great responses and numerous hits from most of the members? I'm not saying everyone likes it or even has to but, why give the people who do like it sh$t? I'm not holding you down in this thread i just encouraged stories

Ps the second part wasn't for you, other members were implied

I'm guessing, I'm one of those members. Let me see... some member here may not of been commenting it nicer way, but most of them has learn from their experiences and don't want other ppl go through same thing as they did. I'm not gonna lie, I have done street race before and I did get my consequences for it. Ever since then, I haven't done any street racing. I hope ppl I know don't go through same thing as I did.

If you wanna keep racing it on the street, I can't stop ya. Only thing I can do is encourage you not to. That's all

I guess all bmw, mercedes, and mustang guys are douchebags too for having a "kill stories section!"

I don't think any of you have experienced what i did and this is why you don't understand why i am so angry at this guy.

This is truly why our insurances are so god damn high because people like these are so immature and stupid.
You're probably suffering form NA car syndrome. Go get a TT. Otherwise, I feel really bad that your supra will never see over 4000 RPM. You should sell it for "40 g's"(yeah right) LOL!!

Dude. There's nothing wrong with a freeway pull at 3am. Shut up.

I think this is another guy suffering from slow car syndrome. My friend had a 1999 2.5RS and that thing was slow as balls in a straight line. The engine was complete garbage. The whole cars design was junk, down to the SHITTY ASS BRAKE ASSEMBLY on the stock brakes. The only thing that was great about the car was that it was light, and when you SWAP it and spend a fuckload of money on the suspension, it will really shine. It was only good in the twisties, and even bland at that cause of the lack of power(110whp ftw?)

Yes, going over 120mph blown front driver side tire, flip the car over 5 time... yes, it was just started as fun freeway pull.

& say what you will bout my current car, I careless. Slow? Sure it's 3x slower than NSX. repair parts for my car? Sure, it's 3x cheaper to fix/buy than NSX. It's perfect car for college student. Have problem w that? Too bad

Have you ever changed your stock brakes before? Ever take a look at your brake assembly? For some reason, I highly doubt it.

P.S. blowing a tire can happen anytime, anywhere.

1) if you never check your pressure

2)you run on WanLi tires or equivalents.

Yes, you're absolutely correct, blow the tire can happen anytime. Which is more dangerous? 65mph or +120mph. btw, I don't even know WanLi is. I have only bought Bridgestone, Yokohama & Kumho. If you think, they're POS, sure why not.

btw, yes I have changed out stock brakes before. I'm not newbie. Overhauled & tuned several cars before, thank you.

If you're so street racing happy, why don't you write some here in open public forum. Please, I'm waiting.

While at it, post some pic and vid too.

For some reason, I don't believe a word you say. If you have changed the stock brakes before, what part of the brakes is the FLAW in the design and is the major bitch? What software do you use to tune the car? What have you overhauled before?

I gave you THREE kill stories sections in PUBLIC forums viewable by EVERYBODY. Shut the fuck up and go report them if you want.

P.S. NSX's are slow in a straight line. That is all.

Hopefully you guys won't get in trouble with the law like I did when I was a young fool. I stand correct that it's not worth it, both financially and time wise. But what can I say, hey it's a free country.

I had my fair share of tickets back in the days; mid to late 90's when it was underground. It was a mess

-Speed Contest
-Exhibition of Speed
-Driving over a simulated island (illegal U-turn over 2 DY)
-Aiding and abetting (I was flagging @ "Fire House" and this violation eventually turned into a serious offense which lead to your vehicle being impounded)
-Vehicle is too low (CHP measured my headlights- CA law is 22" from the ground to the center of the headlight and mine was 19")
-Sent to the state referee twice (For my JG heads/Bullfrog cams and the other was b/c of my 80 shot direct port.)
-License suspended for 6 months, 5 pts on my driving record

Your posts make me laugh. Driving is not a right; it's a privilege. I feel it is my privilege to push my car to whatever speed I want. I know the potential consequences of my actions and I drive accordingly. It's not like I do triple digit speeds every where I go, lol. But, I have two cars and a motorcycle. If I'm in my Supra, it's to enjoy myself with a fun driving experience. As far as the speed limit goes, I drive the speed limit or ~ 5-10 mph over normally. It's when I have room to stretch my legs that I push the limit.

As far as going to the track, I do go to the track . But, it's not like I'm going to see a Ferrari/Lambo/Exotic/Sports Car on the road and ask him, "hey... let's not do this on the street. How about meeting me at the track on the next test and tune day?"

All I see with this is you need to buy better tires and check their pressure regularly. My Z rated tires are rated to above 186 mph by the manufacturer, and there is no reason for me to wonder "am I going to get a blow out today?" every time I get in the car.

Again, if something can happen at any time, then what's the point of worrying about it? As long as I do proper maintenance and buy quality products, the chance of getting a blow out is severely diminished. I agree that it can happen any time, but the chance of it happening at just the right moment would have to be a case of pure chance.

I posted my story yesterday, but here you go

Here is a video I made during Sunday's cruise:


Be sure to note the 65 to 125+ mph pull at the 3:55 mark.

Here is a 60 - 140 mph pull a few years back:
http://www.streetfire.net/video/bpu-...he-e_26902.htm

Here is me racing a GTI VR6:
http://www.streetfire.net/video/bpu-...pray_30916.htm

Here is me racing a bike:
http://www.streetfire.net/video/1994...600rr_3761.htm

Here is me racing an L67 Pontiac GTP:
http://www.streetfire.net/video/turb...upra_22289.htm

And... I saved the best for last. This was my first street race ever back in 2003:
http://www.streetfire.net/video/bpu-...obra_37071.htm

Note: You can see me shift into 6th gear. We hit 165 mph on that first race

If you think so, then I have nothing to say. I'm just trying to encourage not to street race. That's all
