2 dead in Atlanta Street Racing Accident (http://www.11alive.com/news/news_article.asp?storyid=32146)

If you've GOT to street race, at least wear a seat belt. This could have very well been one of us.

The winner of a race is uaually determined in the first eighth to quarter mile but some of these ppl insist on continuing to see who has the better top end, which covers at least a mile. A lot of these accidents could be avoided if they'd just keep it to the quarter mile distance. I've street raced several times and I can determine a winner by 4th gear. If ur going to race, take it to the strip.

Yeah I usually let off by the top of 2nd (70) if im winning or losing. Most stock sports cars trap around 70 and fast cars trap 100 so in the 1/8th thats a good measure.
