nurkvinny Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 Curious if anyone else caught the DateLine report this evening about street racing? The reporter insisted on calling every car in the story a "tuner". Woooooowwwwwwww. It boiled down to showing 5 to 10 second video clips of rice weaving in and out of D.C. area traffic at 80+ mph, and 2 shaven-head "tuners" saying, "I just have to race. I just have to. It's a way of life." Parts of the narration included: "Some might think this is reminiscent of the muscle car era. But it's not. With new technology, and small amounts of money, these small cars can turn into real rockets!" "Yo, wit 2 G's, I could easy be makin ahmost tree hunred horses!!! Seriously man!" They went on to show a few fatal accidents caused by these new-age "tuner" cars. Among these pictures were a Conversion van and a C5. Quality reporting. Yo. Seriously.

SquirrelyNutsDSP Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Glad I missed it...just the waste-of-life media justifying their paychecks. I see it as a good way to raise your blood pressure, but it drops IQ at the same time so I use the OFF button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowZ06 Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 I saw it. It was definitley graemlins/gay.gif . I wonder if that guy with the orange CRX (That lived with his mamma) was the same one that was in the paper a while back calling everyone rednecks and the such?

smokin5s Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 maybe we should call them and have them do a report on us or something... although they'll probably find a way to turn it around on us also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Notchback Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Weaving in traffic is weak and stupid. It's always the pussies with slow cars that do that. Hopefully they will ony hurt themselves when they wreck and explode. Straight lines on empty highways are far better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
