Yeh but its quite obviously going to have a much much worse outcome at 100+mph with hundreds of people standing at the side of the road.

He's a boring girl because he's shocked that this thing happens on public roads? Or because he doesn't agree?
I'm all for racing, but not on the public highway. There's hundreds of things that could go wrong, or pull/walk out in front of you. Especially in that A38 video with people stood in the layby and cars double-parked. There's a time and a place, and that isn't it.

Like netherfield - You have to drive out of your way to get there.
Not particually dangerous as the race away down to a dead end where no onestands.
I never participate i just like to watch - and im not allowed to watch for a year becuase im bascially on suspended sentence now

netherfield is crap and has seen its fair share of smashes too.
Notts circuit back around 2000-2002 was crazy with big power cars flying round the city centre at well over 100mph in some cases.

Mansfield circuit is another one, there are some pretty quick cars nailing it around there, they put up a speed camera but people kept setting fire to it so it hasn't been workin for ages.

Aye the place around here is Kirkcaldy prom as already said. The traffic light gran prix is pretty amusing to watch from time to time, but there has been a big clamp down.

Boo hoo, its a dead end industrial estate on a Sunday.
fair enough, thats not so bad as i thought it was your average dual carriage way with a rounabout at the end im sure you get some rather quick cars there but it looks abit busy and chavvy to me.
gotta love the buckinghamshire and oxfordshire A roads round here, late night spin in a mates P1 and on the nice straight ones you can go for a good blast and barely pass a sole, then there the good twisty b roads aswell
