HAHA, come on Randall, its not too harsh. I've seen first hand on my CT scanner what street racing does to people.... multiple times. That's why I feel so strongly about it. I've bet you've never seen a 16 y/o girl die while you're trying to save her because her boyfriend thought he was Paul Walker. When you see that, come talk to me about how street racing isn't that big of a deal.
Paul Walker made a living off of glamorizing street racing. Millions off of it. He was the main actor in 7 films that were all about street racing. NOTHING MORE... it wasn't 1 single movie. He bred street racing and died doing it. He got exactly what he was asking for. You race on the street, you're an idiot with zero respect for society. You glamorize it, I want nothing to do with you, and NHRA sees it that way too. I don't want my racetrack filled with a bunch of criminals.
