Crooked street racing ricer bastards...thats what they deserve for stealing parts - and buying or selling stolen parts - just to race in the streets.
Too bad - so sad...now the poor little ricers without their street racin' POS cars built from stolen parts will just have to go buy their stuff legit from now on and learn to drive legal...the bunch of freakin' losers.
Around here, if they catch you street racing, they take your ride, lock your butt up, and take away your driver's license. If the cops find out anything on your ride is stolen, you get charged with possesion of stolen property. And if your ride is not street legal, they charge you with that too.
People have got locked up with some serious cell block time for that stuff...and IMHO - they got what they deserved.
Too many innocent lives have already been lost from this crap - one of them being a younger step-brother of mine that was only 18.
He was standing in a McDonalds parking lot minding his own damn business when a young street racer's car collided with another innocent lady's car, jumped the curb, and landed right on top of him.
He barely survived long enough to get to the hospital, and the poor lady in the other car was severely banged up too.
Also, one of my daughter's co-workers and good friends that she went to high school with was killed when a street racer blew a stop light and t-boned his car while he was driving 2 of his buddies home from school.
They other 2 guys in his car got hurt and cut up pretty bad as well.
FFS...If you wanna race - then go take your butt to the track where that kind of stuff belongs. And if you wanna build somethin' - then go buy your parts legally and do it legit.
The lameass thieving street racing ricers are the reason a lot of us that have spent a lot of time on our trucks just to have something to do in our spare time, and to try to have a nice ride we can be proud of, are constantly getting hassled by the cops everywhere we drive them for no damn reason.
Personally, I wish they would crush them all and take their damn licenses away permanently. They just give car customizing a black eye, their cars all look and sound like crap, and they all can't drive them worth a damn.
