Whoo... no mercy...

Can they do that? Arrest 80 people at once???

I'm hearing constant sirens and a chopper is flying around w/ a light shinning down on the valley. Glad I got home before the 10PM curfew.

Did someone post the event on their MySpace or other forum? Kent police seemed to be pretty organized with the heli and troopers.

I'm glad I wasn't there but I'd be interested to see how my attorney would plea this case. Also glad to hear they were racing on private property, instead of the street, because by being in a parking lot they were not putting innocent bystanders at risk....assume criminal tresspass charges are pending.

These guys need to organize and work out a deal with Pacific Raceways so they can race legit.

I wonder how many of those burnout cops used to race their Chevelles, Mustangs, and Challengers back in the 70's? Two faced bastages! Tired of the fuzz trying to protect me from myself.....If I hurt you or damage your property you can hold me accountable otherwise get out tha way!

Duh...read the part about being in a parking lot. Hopefully most people have enough sense to differentiate the risk factors between racing down an interstate vs an enclosed parking lot.

I stopped going to the illegal races in Portland back when the original Fast and the Furious came out. The scene went to **** overnight. They'll impound your car here for bystanders.

When will street racers learn that they have no place for themselves in this world?
