Default Re: NHRA regulates off track behavior.........

When I was 17 we all street raced on a road that led to a manufacturing plant. Of course we got arrested, we were all charged with aiding and abetting an illegal race not a moving violation but a misdemeanor.

Long story short. One of the kids brought in a lawyer and he proved that it was a PRIVATE road and the State had no authority there unless the owner complained...we were all let go.

SO race on a private road which seems to be on an airport! With the owners permission and a bunch of paperwork I'm sure. Whether you like these guys or not the only people in danger are themselves.

I can understand the NHRA's position and the answer is simple....cover up your number when you race!

I wonder how many of us started street racing with our street car before moving to legal racing. Hell, I'm still the first one across the street at a red light.
