Very retarded indeed

but just imagine trying to get away and you get spiked, all four tires flat and jail too

What im wondering is even if you are just sitting there watching, if you still get busted for that?

From what was explained to me once. You can get ticketed for watching, I forgot the reason but it was along the lines of abetting in an illegal activity.

Yes indeed you can get a ticket for watching the races, in fact they can get real nasty and tow your car back with them if they feel like. Just be thankful your not in california. Down here in san diego we have a police force (dragnet) who only writes carb violation tickets and goes after the racers, they are real real nasty, in fact I have had my hood popped several times now. no I don't race but if you watched that stupid mtv thing on streetracing the location they called firehouse is where my old office was. Try comming out of that in a S with races going on all around you.

Ok so there are no laws so there is no law either that says if you outrun a cop or hit a cop or curse him/her out youll be sent to jail, correct?

then again, they gotta always gang up on u, thats the only way they will get u, a one on one situation would be too difficult for them
