Well I'll add my two cents to this thread, I never read the other thread in question as I have no idea what when on in there but really when your angry or dealing with a lot of stress take it all to a game where you can release it freely, it's what I do if I'm having a bad day and GTA games are my choice.
Speeding, I'll start off by saying anyone who uses that as a justifing means to their street racing seriously need to really think about it. On avarage everyone speeds up to 15 km/ph over the posted limit at any given time, and on avarage 15~30 kms on the highway, that being said Most people Know not to go over that other then on the highway where it's in an area that is inclosed, and a lower risk to have something run out into the highway ( well in Ontario that is ) I myself will admit to speeding on the highway, but never more then what the traffic around me is doing.
But getting back to the Street Racing topic, you really have to Think about it, doing double the posted limit or more in residental streets is absolutly insane, as your putting everyone, and everything at risk. Think about all of what you could do if a child ran out between two parked cars, you'd never see them till it's too late. Not to mention the Couple that was killed by racers when they started to make their turn because they thought that the car that hit them was a block away, they never knew that they were traveling at over 150km/ph and racing. So far 8 people are Dead this year because of street racing, it's stupid and very dangerous all for nothing.
My question is if you were the driver of a car that was racing and hit and killed someone else, what would you say to their family ?
