kinda off topic....but a 74 year old woman coming off of her lunch break I thought the limit was 65 year's old.

And what the hell is a 74 year old woman doing driving on the road's? or driving period? I know that even 60 year old's cant drive worth crap....and most of the accident's that I here about with old people are the old people causing them.


But it is still sad what happened....That's why I take it to the track. One obervation I made during a meet at the drag strip...was all the kid's were doing 13-14 second's in the parking lot, but only 16-18 second's on the strip..........hmmmmmmmmmmm....make's ya think.

This isnt about old people... this isnt about young people... this is about stupid people who's actions have caused death or harm to others. sure old people cause accidents because their reflexes arent up to par. But young people or in this case (stupid) *** clowns, who disregarded the safety of others and themselves caused this ---- to happen. And yes he's gonna pay (Vehicular Manslauter at min), and that SOB in the red civic is either gonna get ratted out. or hes gonna have to live with this on his concience if he has one.

This is the kind of ---- that pisses me off.. this just adds fuel to the fire... this is one of the reasons cops have to pull your *** over and give you a hard time.

Like i mentioned before... next time someone pulls up to you at the light and wants to go at it... let his *** go off on his own he'll look rediculous, and if theres a cop nearby, he'll be the one getting pulled over.

If by me posting this article, makes you think twice before doing something senseless.. than i have fullfilled my civic duty....

Street Racing is never gonna fizzle out, because its in our nature as humans to be competative...

But just keep it safe... and think

This is exactly why I don't go street racing anymore. Yes it is fun but after you lose a few good friends to this you take a look and wonder if it is still worth it. Guys i know street racing is fun and your going to do it but just try to keep it safe... I don't want anything to happen to any of you. Better yet just keep it on the track if you can!!! Just remember you may be an awesome driver but you need to look out for others who may not be...

my condolences to the 74 year old woman and her entire family!

lol if you run rich enuf to throw flames your aren't fast or ferious.

i hope the new movie dosent show street racing in traffic like the other one because that is just fucked up. if you race on a closed street or street with no cars then its cool.

but racing between stoplights and endangering other people is just gay and thats all there is to it.

can't these ******* find a closed or unused road? i mean theres tons of them where i live and noone is endangered but the dumbasses racing (ie me).

i want to open up a place like that racewars in f&f so ppl can really race on the street and not a track .. theres just something cool about being able to hand someones *** to them on the street, and you know your not racing a trailer queen at the track with a tree and rubber coated track.

but thats just my .02

heres the article from the orange count y register, posting it cause its a pain in the *** to register to see ----.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SANTA ANA – A man suspected of being the second street racer in a fatal May crash was arrested Wednesday, and prosecutors say they will file murder charges against him.

Rodrigo Orejel Gomez, 22, of Santa Ana was taken into custody at the Santa Ana Police Department, police Sgt. Baltazar De La Riva said.

Margaret Levya, 74, of Huntington Beach was killed May 1 when her Volkswagen Golf was hit head-on by one of two cars police believe were racing on Bristol Street.

Julio Enrique Trujillo, 25, of Santa Ana was arrested that day and charged with murder. Police believe that Trujillo was the driver of the Mustang that crossed into incoming traffic and hit Leyva's car.

The second car, believed to be Gomez's gold Acura Integra, fled the scene. Witnesses said the cars were racing at about 80 to 90 mph.

Authorities tracked Gomez down after a witness provided a clearer description of the second car, De La Riva said. Days after the crash, investigators learned that Gomez took his car to an auto-body shop to have it repainted and repaired. Police impounded the vehicle before it was fixed, De La Riva added.

Deputy District Attorney Larry Yellin said charges of murder, vehicular manslaughter and speed racing will be filed today against Gomez. Trujillo, facing the same counts, has pleaded not guilty.

"If you engage in a contest and it results in someone's death, you're going to be prosecuted for your conduct, whether (or not) you were the one who physically caused the accident," Yellin said.

Gomez is being held at Santa Ana City Jail on $1 million bail. Authorities say Trujillo and Gomez do not know each other. If convicted, both face 15 years to life in prison.
