I don't know how true that actually is, but tracks around here are few and far between and several have closed over the last few years. However, racing on the street is just plain stupid and god help you if you ever kill an innocent bystander while racing. I sure wouldn't want to live with that on my shoulders so I don't street race.

We have a pretty nice track here. They even have a drift pad for the kids who think they're living in a Fast and Furious movie.
The problem is the kids simply don't want to comply with track rules or don't want to pay to go there.
Even better, I've had kids tell me they like the adrenaline rush of knowing what they're doing is illegal and having to run from the cops.
