Ever taken your car to the track? I'm curious what kind of 1/4 mile times it's capable of. Maybe somewhere in the 13's.

Highly doubt it's in the 13s with the mods I have now. I wish tho! Lol I'd say high 14s maybe never taken it to the track, I'm thinking about it this yr!

Are you serious? That's incredibly sad...

I know so many people who ride motorcylces, even had a close family member die on a motorcycle. I will never own or ride on one, they are far too dangerous.

Yea 2 nights ago apparently was in a car chase running from cops going over 130mph. Stopped by 2 cars after passing a red light getting off an exit. He was a really good guy. Very young too.

Sorry to hear about the loved ones that it happened to. Bikes are nice but yea very dangerous

Well you sharing those details surrounding his death make me lose some sympathy for him. Running from the cops and traveling at those speeds is an incredibly dangerous and stupid combination, almost guaranteeing you some very potent outcomes. It's still sad it cost him his life, but when you're in the street racing scene and you decide to run from the cops, you're making a bad decision. Just pull over and take your punishment the honest way, learn your lesson, and move on.

Yea I know what you mean. Sucks cuz he was a good guy good heart. No one expected it from him but I agree, should he have just pulled over, things would have been ok. Regardless it's sad to see loved ones go. But hopefully actions like this will open up people's eyes
