All you folks that hate street racers, gotta realize tracks are at least an hour and half from most of us. It takes me about 1 hour and 45 to get to Reynolds. Never been to Commerce though since Reynolds is a faster track where I can get more runs in. They shut down the Dallas 1/8 track as well this year. People complain about street racing, well if you want to help combat it, build more tracks, simple as that. Or even better, have police enforced street night runs and block off roads, and have it monitored by police! Even do a charge of 10 dollars, and im sure youd get lots of extra money for the budget and provide a safe legal outlet for running someone.
Before someone jumps on my shit about street racing, I go to the drag strips, and I have gone to a road course. All of which were a long way away and ended up spending tons of money on gas.
