Street Race Accident in Reno near my house
Driving home from the meet, my buddy saw the perfect reason why street racing is bad m-kay.
Anyway, I had my camera on me so I broke it out and started taking some pictures. We chatted with the cop for a bit, and when we told him we were in a local car club that promotes legal racing instead of street racing, we just kept chatting and he stop me from taking further pics. From what we overheard, these two cars were racing at about 90-100mph near the Taco Bell and one car ended up flipping. Two people in the flipped car were taken directly across the street to the Hospital and the other car stopped to help out. When we were there, I think it was sinking in for him just how bad it really was. He stopped bull****ting the cops even, and came clean with what happened. I don't think anyone else was involved luckily.
Anyway, I'll let the pics say the rest...
Tree is missing its top
About 50 feet up the road
something looks off
Seriously guys, this is why we say take it to the track.

Guess that fact that every teenager with a driver's license has been given more than enough reason not to act like an asshat behind the wheel isn't helping.

every street racing accident increased our insurance even more.... YAY "F"ers!!!
I wish that in every street racing accident, the involved parties would all die because at least there would be a decent reason for the insurance to go up then if the bone heads lived..... sorry if that sounds harsh...
