If someone is street racing, they are posing a danger to not only themselves but innocent people that are driving on the same street(s), thats the one problem i have with it.
If they kill themselves and nobody else that's fine.

we race, but on back farm roads that nobody else goes on, farm for about a mile to either side of us, we endanger ourselves, but we all know why we're there, and the consequences. racing on the highway with others around you and ****...that's just stupid.

It still would matter if it's a porsche, however it would affect us more in an indirect way as it puts more on porsche drivers than it does Subaru drivers.

+1....i'm sure many of you guys have done it before too
and who cares if it was a 95 intergra, there are PLENTY of integras that are WAY faster than modded subarus.
you see way more 11 & 12 second integras than subarus.
