From the Daily news:
under this bill drag racing will be a crime punshable by a max sentance of 6 months in jail and a $600 fine for the first offense.
A 2nd offense will get you 1 year and $1000 fine.
Here is the funny part:
Under the bill ,"WOULD BE" drag racers will face the same penaltys if mearly caught demonstrating that a race is "imminent".
That incliudes having equipment in cars for:
"injecting speed boosting nitrous oxide" ,
making an "invitation" to race ,
wagering on it's outcome ,
raising a car vertically (WTF IS THAT, A WHEELIE?),
and or "spinning" a vehicle in a circle.
Oh yea ,
they take your car too.
Sounds like someone watched The fast and furious too many times.
They race on city streets at 130+ mph and then hit the button and go warp speeds,
so fast there floorbard fall out,
jumping bridges and stuff. :nos:
IT'S A FREAKING MOVIE !
This is crazy and bias IMO,
why would Nitrous be different then a turbo or supercharger ?
Maybe my car is slow and I need some sort of power adder to merge on the Long Island Expressway.
Does that mean I am intending to race HERE and NOW cause I have a bottle ?
Because I have a gun ,does that mean I intend to murder someone ?
We can thank the stupid ricers for all of this,
Making noise,weaving in and out of lanes,blowing red lights and stop signs,
Trying to "drift" on the street (see my post "Chevelle almost got creamed tonight")
That my friends is NOT Drag racing !
Then to boot,
They close the only dragstrip on Long Island.
Now there taking about closing Englishtown too,
because the nitwits who bought million dollar homes near there don't like
the noise or traffic,
but he niose from the airport is OK.
Come on people lets get back to reality :slam
