I used to street race ALOT. Then my son was born and I decided that it wasnt worth it. In NC ( IDK about other states) if you are caught redhanded in a "premeditated street race" your car in impounded and crushed! No questions asked. This all happens BEFORE the trial. They dont auction it, or anything like that it is DESTROYED! I hate to think about the Monte being crushed

they destroy the hondas keep the american mucil to catch the ones faster then the crown vics that the police have. i work for the sheriff's motor pool they have alot of cars that they have taken. have them taken a look at destroy the ones they dont want manly hondas toyotas though. but the rest that they use you'll never know that there police car's. seen one monty carlo ss my year as a under cover speeder catcher and the thing looks awsum with the police lights turned on sitting off the side of the road pulled some one over pissed off. kinda looked like the same guy that preveusly owend the car befor it was turned into a police car

street racing is very dangerous, and can get you in alot of trouble. but i know any1 here sitting in there modded monte carlo is thinking about racing all the time. when u see alittle teenager in there 98 civic with a muffler and nothing else revving it you know all you wanna do is take off at the light or next stop sign. im not a big fan of street racing, i do most of it on the track but i will have to say i occasionally step on the pedal now and then

The idea of the cops crushing the cars is a b.s. way to get media coverage IMHO. Seems to me they could make some well needed money by parting them out. Then send the empty shell to the scrap heap.
