The pointless thing is our cars we are probably more in control of our car when we are driving "reckless" than econoboxes taking off form a stop light.

responding to the title of this thread....

I recall a quote by some famous racer, and though I can't remember who to give credit to or the exact phrase, but it went something like this.

"Racing makes a heroine addiction look like a vague craving for something salty."

Actually, in California, I believe that you can as long as you don't lose traction.

This is just stupid. Im sorry to tell you this but not everybody goes to the track people mod there cars and drive it more on the street and there happy with that because they want to have more power. You know what im just going to stop right there this warrtalon show is geting a lil old.

And for the guy post this tread you cant be for real with this comeon if you have bad luck moding your car well you know what to bad for you get it fixed and keep it moveing.

i've heard alot of people say the speed and everything with this race aka car modding game is a drug, i see it somewhat. i have spent already i decent amount of money on my 05 i've had it for about less then a year already. but yea buddy above is right not too many people have brang their cars to the track. i for one just keep modding probably gonna get it dynoed soon just to do it. but with the track i dont plan on going their for quite some time.
