Street racing: The need for speed A&E (1 Viewer)

Hmm This Kid is REALLY STUPID!! .So he was trying to drift a FWD car???

I didn't even catch that! HAHA. Loser (the kid, not me)

They had a big thing on our local news here last night about street racing in Hartford. Knowing how often this comes up on this board, I was listening for the references. I was pretty impressed as they referred to it as street racing, and not drag racing. The only drag racing reference I caught was something to the effect of: "The street races are typically done in a drag race type fashion, two at a time, on a straight stretch of road." I could live with that.

No, he was trying to "street slide" his car. Drifting only takes place at sanctioned drifting tracks.
