Let me think ..... Racing Dangerous .... Duh.

Let me think about the spirit of this video. What can happen on the track or the street. Ding Ding.

Let me take it one step further for all the drivers that street race and what could happen during and after the race ...... We have a winner ... Ding Ding Ding. BTW if anyone got injured or killed during a street race then you would have a one way ticket to club fed without your ride. Maybe at the very least you get to see your ride crushed right in front of you.

This is a wake up call of how fast things can turn ugly. Please race responsibly.

Not exactly sure what the "wake up call" is. If you didn't know racing, either street or track, is dangerous, then you shouldn't be on the street. From the first day you have your drivers license you should have been taught and known that things can turn from bad to good in a moment. That should have been your wake up call. Not some video of a guy crashing in a track race. Ding Ding.

Actually - I think it's a wake up call for all the folks that get angry because a track wants them to have the proper safety equipment to run in the 11's or 10's or whatever. There are a lot of folks with high HP turbo and SC cars that take them to the dragstrip and don't have the safety equipment. And then - they want ot do private track rentals so they can skirt hte rules for IHRA / NHRA, etc.

I realize cages and roll bars and all that safety crap isn't fun in a street car - but - it can save your bacon.

This video is to show new, inexperienced, and other drivers what can happen. A lot of people race on public streets. Maybe this video can prevent 1 person from racing on the street and take it to the track. If 1 person changed their mind to not race on the street and take it to the track then this video was worth it. This is not a personal attack on you or anybody else. I'm not a cop just a guy that has lost someone to street racing. Enough said. Take this video any way you want. Peace out.
