this race is in PA not Phoenix

If I still lived in PA I would be there.

I will no longer race on the street. Period! Its not worth the risk. I will only race at the track. With my brother being a Phoenix cop, I know that there are too many unknowns out there. For one, there are a TON of unmarked cars that look like normal cars roaming the streets. They are looking for drag racing only, then they either call in for a marked unit, or pull them over. Also, I cannot afford to have my license suspended, my car impounded, nor the rediculous fines they are charging now for street racing. Also, what happens if someone loses it and ends up like the cobra and the SS that were all over the news and Forums a couple weeks ago? Both parties will be sued up the ass in civil court. Plus, some poor family lost thier son. I've done it before now realized how stupid and selfish I was. Never again. I'll dial in the boost controller for a conservative amount of boost and enjoy 11.50 consistant ET racing at the track. My car has already seen 131 traps with the KB combo (no spray either). So I can only imagine what this car will do with the Turbo and Spray combo. "I will let it all out at the track rental". Even if its just once, I guarantee you I will run 23psi and spray out of the hole. Gene

And to reply to Dans original post. If I had the following: a truck that can tow my car, a trailor, a week off of work, some money for the entry fee, hotel an food, I'd be all over it. Good luck to you though Dan, make us Arizona boys proud. Gene

Gene your right on the street racing thing. Some people got pissed off when I took this site over because I don't want to promote street racing on this forum.
I was a young punk at one time. 21 years old in my 5.0. Myself and a buddy in a GN left a red light hard to about 45 MPH and we both got off it. Unfortunately there was a cop hiding behind the bushes. We both got street racing tickets. In PA that is a 1 year suspension of your license.
We plead it out and court and kept our licenses. It is not worth the hassle or risk.

There was a rich kid that had a viper in Pittsburgh that killed someone out racing his car. He ended up in jail.

I spoke with a PHX cop at the pavilions one night and he told me these sites are visited by LE looking for street racing activities.

As an old punk now. I can only say keep it on the track.

dan- that race is a little far homie. i just started a new job, and a cross country trip would most definetly not help my new employment. unless you have the room for another parts guy. ;)

otherwise, i agree, i need to get my booty out to that track. just want some loose ends tied up, and i will be. and after my cars next trip to your place, it will be. ;)

No one said anything about street racing. The event Dan is talking about is going to be held at Maple Grove raceway. It should be interesting.
