Why isn't street racing made legal?

I think it should be legalized, but only if the pedestrians are allowed to shoot at the drivers with automatic weapons!!

you'll find out when areal man snatches your sorry a ss up for endangering his loved ones. you want a rush, put the barrel of a gun in your mouth. i didn't think so.so now you've moved up from a wagon to a souped up go cart WOW!!! YOU REALLY WANNA RACE THEN DO IT ON THE TRACK LIKE A REAL MAN.

im pretty sure its illegal because they might hit somone in the process

Some people don't use common sense. Like comparing street racing to a sport like football. First of all numnuts, football players aren't running at the speed the cars are racing and secondly, they aren't made of metal with motors and gasoline. Not to mention that even with proper safety equipment, not all people are going to use it. If people were more worried about saftey than self image maybe it would be legal. It's the idiots that ruin the fun not the people who try to make the world a safer place. Please tell me you aren't this stupid about everything. My neighbors little boy was run over and killed cuz daddy thought it would be so cool to street race. He feels really good about it now.......

I've seen way too many accidents caused by street races!! Some have ended fatal.. Too many young kids in mommy and daddys cars that cant drive for Sh*t!! Drugs & Alcohol don't mix while street racing!!! Street Racing will Never be legalized!

If you concider it a sport. Think about this. Sports are played INSIDE a controlled environment. Arenas, stadiums, tracks etc... Get the picture, last thing I need is to be on my motorcycle, minding my own business, and one of you tuner jerk offs runs my Innocent @$$ over because you want to impress your 13 yr old girlfriend. Get in my way, I'll gut you like a pig, and eat your liver. And yes, I'll make your girlfriend watch...

If you can kill yourself without society having to pay for it, then fine. Unfortunately, that's not possible. Also, it's not OK to kill innocent people who just happen to be around.

dude!cuz its dangereux!.......we would all do it for fun if there was nothin known as "DEATH"(even i would,but im scared as hell)i think it shdnt be made legai even though i would have loved to race with my friends,lol.........remember,its dangerous!

There is always a criminal element involved with street racing, sideshows and other things. They are racing for pinks, street cred or whatever stupid reason. Street racing is mostly drag racing, some canyon. But any moron can pay someone to build a car and mash the throttle down. Anyone who has raced at the track knows that there are many rules and regulations, to be safe and make the odds even. They also know how to setup the vehicle. This is something I don't see with "night shift" racers and I laugh when they drive around corners very slowly. It's illegal mainly because innocent drivers and bystanders are hurt or killed when these "night shift" racers crash. By the way, the fastest drivers are the ones who have actually raced at the track. The "night shift" racers would be humbled at a road course or at the staging tree.
