Nowadays it seems to ME that "street racing" is more about partying, ego gratification, and bragging rights.
Don't get me wrong- bragging rights factored into street racing since it began, but the ATMOSPHERE has changed over the years, and I find "street racing" nowadays to be a complete and utter waste of time.
Take it to the track, and a TIMESLIP DOES THE TALKIN'!
So you never went to the street races in the 80's on Latimer or Harvie roads in Langley (farm country) that was two big spots for awhile? There were two mopars that were pretty fast one was a 4 spd Cuda and the other I think was a orange Superbee supposely 440 6 pack car. It got to much attention by the cops so most of the guys I hung around started going out to Abbotsford boonies to race.
