Street Racing was fun to watch back in the days before "crackdowns". Back then it was only about 10 or 15 muscle cars and most people knew each other. That was my experience in the early to mid 90's

Looked like 2 subies got busted.. cop said 50 tickets and 10 tows. 10 tows were the actual racers but the 50 tickets were people watching with modified exhaust and engines and some had no drivers license. They said they are starting the busts now to get ready for summer.

I have no sympathy for any of them, even if the two subies are members on here....that's what you get for participating in something like that
Oh, and you can get a ticket or watching, you don't need to have a modded exhaust or have no DL, you can get a ticket just for being there

so i am running a TBE that is catted? if i ever get caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, would i be ticketed to death? i have a legal SPT intake in the car, but only the exhaust is what worries me.
keep in mind, i don't race anyone on the streets at all, ever.

taking two cars out to a lonely road and putting some **** talking to rest is one thing, but when you've got 50 cars out there, lined up on both sides of the road, that's a whole nother thing. I'm hoping these people learn their lesson and try to take it to the track.
