I stopped reading soon as the long ranting posts started.

I think everyone knows I am the official street racing foo expert of SVX Network, so just listen to me.

SVXN is not to be used for glorifying illegal street racing.
It is not to be turned into those other car forums with speedclowns moderating them.

I'm sure everyone has interesting stories to tell.
I'm positive everyone has interesting stories with happy endings.
That doesn't matter.

You wouldn't post about the narcotics you use, or the people you maim, or the laws you intentionally break.
This is no different.

I like to drive fast. I do it whenever I feel the need. How fast, I won't say. I will look like a reckless buffoon. I defeat other sporty cars, I keep records, I used to post about it.
All it did was cause problems.

The integrity of a sensible forum for a classy driving machine is compromised when we make it apparent people use the thing irresponsibly and further advocate such action by supplying a means of glorification.

Personally I enjoy a good race story.
I have nothing against them.
I speak not for myself on this issue but for the Network.
A community of sensible, level-headed, people who'd like to have you over for a BBQ, not a raze of the city streets.

I'll take a burger over spilling oil any day.

When I hit reply I totally had no intention of typing more than a line or two. =D Oh well.
