Lets do this...

This is the first time I have ever seen this type of thread....... A+ for originality
And BTW, why don't you build a fast car, then worry about racing....
AND, Racing with other cars on the road, especially racing around them on both sides is retarded....

Well im working on it, but it helps when there is a real scene ya know?..that makes sense rght?The reason it left is because of people like you(no offense, really). And bubba. And even me at some point. Everyone TALKS about building a car, wastes shops time, peoples time, and then never follows through. It sort of takes the fun out of helping people with research/ideas when they are just going to lose interest before they can do it. With the economy in a bad way this year, it's unlikely that you, or any of us are going to just magically be able to revive the "scene".
So, before you go and try to motivate all of us, ask yourself how YOU are helping the scene. That is for everyone. Some of us want it, some of us really don't care anymore and just enjoy the friends we've made, which is what essentially keeps us on here. Either way, this thread has been started every winter in the past 3-4 years, atleast once.

he speaks the TRUTH! -
Yeah let's hold illegal street races and endanger the lives of not only ourselves but innocent people as well. Real fucking brilliant. The people that really want to make a difference are those that are sponsoring race days at the local drag strips. Kudos to them for doing the right thing. Every time I see some moron go flying down the street at high speed, I think one thing: "I hope you run into a pole you fucking dipshit". I'd be willing to bet I'm not the only one that thinks that.

I just want to clarify, I wasn't talking about "street racing", just about gatherings, quality of cars, etc. Seems like the non-existent middle of the road cars have disappeared, and its either big or 17 seconds.I'm still confused...how do non-existent cars disappear? lol

I was just kidding. I think part of the reason is that people are going for looks more nowadays. I know with my car, it will never be fast (I may have the V6 but the trannys are shit on those things so why even try). That is why I have chosen to not get performance-enhancing parts (well at least nothing for the engine) and just get stuff that will enhance the looks and driveability of the car.
