another thing, my friend was once speeding down route 17 in the winter in a rwd bmw. he went to take an exit ramp and hit a slick spot and fishtailed. the kid not being too good at drifting (this was still original fast and the furious days) couldnt correct it and spun into the snow. a cop saw him do this and instead of helping him out wrote him up a careless driving ticket cause the cop said he was intentionally trying to fishtail the car. imagine getting your BMW crushed for that?

i agree 100% speeding should be put in the same catigory as street racing. Street racign is safer. its late at night, and on roads that have not alot of cars on them. Then you get some dumb ass comin home from work on rt. 80 and he has to cut in and out of lanes doin 120mph. His car should be the one gettin crushed. I personal can carless if street racign goes on or not. But i sure love goin to watch on a nice night... and hell i might even run a few times....
