Its not the racers (normally) who cause the accidents.

Ok, I'm going to actually make this post public. Normally, we will suspend a member and keep it private. But in this case, I think a public talking is necessary.

I hope that most of you can see the absolute irresponsibility that this poster shows. Street racing is dangerous not only to you, but to everybody else on the road. If you're driving 100+ mph, and the people around you are driving 55, they may not even see you coming up on them. And I'm willing to bet that it is you who are changing lanes every 2 seconds to avoid cars. If anybody does anything unexpected, you will not have time enough to react. And your collisions will be that much more serious because of the speed. You will lose control and hurt and/or kill innocent people.

I hope you heed this warning, though I doubt you will. Drive safely and obey the law. Drive fast at the track.
