Cops and Street Racing
The cops are trying to eliminate street racing but the only way i think it would work is if the city and province stop waisting useful money on shitty stuff and build us a Race track and or Drag strip somewhere in Toronto

I'm surprise the oil companies don't jump on building a track.. think of all the burnt fuel and money they are making from the gas to tar to admission fee.. and it can all be a tax write off for charity.. lmao
P.S.
Then ultimately raise the gas price stupidly high and blame street racing and track racers for consuming all the gas limiting supply

Canada needs to be Nuked and started all over again.
Street racing this, street racing that. Is this the biggest fish that we've got to fry? I'm gonna start killing baby seals, punch a hole in our Subs, rally with the natives, **** in the walkerton water reserves, let Paul Bernardo & Karla Homolka baby-sit my 12 teen daughter and figure out the whole Air Inda attack inquiry. "Street racing strikes again", the head lines reads. Clearly, our home and native land.

heres the problem with a track in the gta from a financial point of view.
you take x amount of land and build a track, itll cost you a million or more to do so not including the price of land in the gta, which is very expensive., very cheap start up cost and charge 20 - 30 bucks a person to race there. get say 100 cars on a buys nite, say twice a week, 100 cars each nite, hell lets just say 200 for fun, at 30 bucks a pop.
profit, sure, but heres the big thing
take that land, build houses on it and sell them for no less than 400 000k, dpending on the size of the property, lets take tmp for example, if oyu take all the land they have at the drag strip you can easily build 150 - 200 houses there, not including semi's or the chance for an apartment. homes are expensive as in the gta especially the bigger homes. so now whos gonna win, the guy who wants to build 150 houses at 400k a piece of the guy who wants to spend a mil, buld a track, make lots of noise, attract idiots who cant leave a place like the track without getting into vtechhhhhh ( thats fast), really guys, a track will never happen in the gta. and if it ever did it would constantly be raided by the cops like tmp had happen a few yers back.
housing is much more valuable than a race track, you figure the jobs itll make, jobs menas money for the gov from taxes, then you figure out mortgages, which is money for the banks, utilities which are government owned, then proerpty tax, like that.
a track is far from being a priority. the gov would rather spend 6 mil a year fueling the helicocksucker they use to sniff out racers and larger than neccesary amounts on extra man power for weekends chasing after racers.
and honestly, a track wont solve any of this . as much as we'd like to think hope and assume that a track would stop or atleast put a dent into street racing, we al lknow it wont. especially after the first police raid

We all know a track isn't going to stop stop light drag races. Everyone on this site has done it at one time or another, even my Mom has smoked a Camaro or Mustang or 2 with her turbo Volvo at stop lights. That's never going to stop, unless you ban cars. If there's 2 cars on the road, eventually they're going to race. There's no way to stop it. Trying to shut down people that go to industrial areas, after dark, or where ever, isn't going to stop 2 kids at a stop light. They government has better things to do, however, right now, there have been a few fatalities, due to retards racing stock cars on a highway, and that's what the people want to hear about things being done about. It's never going to change.

I ended up selling her to Stock_Boost for a nickel.
