Default 350Z Owner Dies In a Crash - Street Racing

I wanted to start a thread about this on the Racing-Street but, I thought it would gain much more attention here.

Sad we lost another Z memeber, even if he was racing, but when I read alcohol was a factor, I didt feel as bad for him....What a dumb way to die, def a very immature 35 year old.

I'll list what you need to learn then
1. Dont street race - take it to the track
2. Dont drink and drive - take the taxi
3. Be more responsible - dont act stupid?

Another 350Z driver just died last night in Hawaii. They are calling it a "street racing incident where alcohol may have been a factor".

**edit**

This was the same exact incident I heard about on the news on the way to work this morning...

That would suck. But drinking and driving is bad enough without trying to race someone...

This car will either kill its competition or kill the driver and itself. You can't be stupid.

Default Seat belt?

Fast cars kill people faster. Was this guy wearing his seat belt? Reporter seemed more interested in the effect on traffic.

3 things you should remember when driving

A. Drive slow
B. Drive with responsibility
C. Remember that your life and the lives of others are in your hands.
(Don't street race)

If you really want to do stupid things, do it in video games or in your imagination, not on the streets!
