I remember running from the cops at the illegal drags back in the day. Never got a ticket though; that was before they started writing tickets for spectating though.

That's funny. Aside from just a few, those cars were all rice. I'm thinking that the 911 and the Z just showed up to punish the rest. But, seriously, if cops want kids to stop street racing, they need to support a legal racetrack. Kids will race. Hell, adults will race.

Man the mountain house bust out here in Tracy, CA couple years back was way worse. But they were asking for trouble the spot attracted close to probably 400 cars a night and cops would break it up numerous time and they would just come right back. But since the bust street racing in the 209 has been lame to say the least cops in my home town will pull you over and right you a ticket for having a modified exhaust go to court and prove to him that its not illegal and you feel soooo good lol!
