Cuz you weren’t there, that never happened... never

I was there live to see the semi-trucks race... People didn’t try to be extreme back then trying to get on videos or get likes, everyone was just there to enjoy cars... there were none of those moments to film because they simply never happened. The accidents happened when people raced on the streets in traffic or stoplight races, the night drags were an outlet to get rid of that... but as originalhypa said it all went to shit after that moron crashed his Civic into Jimmy Ng, they locked that shit down within months after and so much as a tire squeal was impound city after that... hell you couldn’t even drive through a sobriety check with a GT Wing on your car after that without getting done for something.

That said, cars today are too fast and too capable, your average V6 family sedan now has a 5.x 0-60 time and 300+hp, shit goes wrong real fast today compared to the 90’s.

Back then Revscene itself was a racing club, the very owners of this forum went to the night drags... I ran my car against one of them myself! Lol
