    Hmm, I've seen and smelled it at the track (Commerce). It does happen. Does that mean that I should want to go to the track again? That I should only street race? Just food for thought. People think that the track is safe..... only for the spectators. And not always then. I'm not saying don't go to the track, just know that it has the same risks, so take precautions - just like you should take precautions if you choose to street race.....

    The risks are definitely not the same. There are much greater risks is streetracing. You have other cars, other people and a quite a bit more surroundings to deal with it when you dumb yourself down to streetracing. You can't take precaustions when you streetrace. What are you going to do, tell other motorists to get off of I-20 so you and someone else can take a run down it? Or Buford Hwy? Later, QD.
