The first ever car race happened 10 minutes after the second car was built. People drive, people race.
I once beat a guy who had a short nascar career years later.
I actually beat Jeff Gordon in a race when we were in HS...
sure, it was a cross-country meet for our schools, but I still brag about it to this day.
“I once beat a guy who had a short nascar career years later”
Big difference between NASCAR and
dragracing. But I get your point.
I always made my passengers exit
the car BEFORE the race was on.
We never street raced except on
deserted straight stretches of
road, outside of city limits.
Still stupid, but no one was
ever hurt or killed.
