Street racing is illegal to begin with and doing it with a truck the size that we drive is just plain dumb. This is the kind of exposure that we do not need and are trying to get folks to stop. If you want to drive fast and see what your truck will do, go to a test-n-tune night at a track and run it down the track. That is my opinion.

I see they yer not called "Granny" For nothing. NO thats not an insult, its a compliment, because one may not argue with that wisdom. Throwing our Truckasaurs around on the street that way is equal to Go kart racing in a Wal Mart.

EDIT: This is going to kill our sport.
Dude, you're taking the high road, all you can do is set the good example, and hope that your buddy doesn't hurt somebody. You don't have to rag on him, and don't let it bug you that he doesn't take your advice.

Look, I doubt none of us are angels, but you got to be smart. That large scale street racing is just dumb.

Some communities have adopted is that is you get caught street racing, they can take your car from you and crush it. I think even being AT a street race qualifies. We've had way too many kids dieing, and even innocent bystanders getting run over when somebody loses control.
