There's so much crap going on in the world. Not to mention we have more and more fanboi ricers coming on here and less pure enthusiast tuners -- and yet someone get's a bug up there ass and this is the topic that concerns them the most to take action on. Give me a break.
Quit your bitching, don't read the street racing stories. And the site doesn't promote it. Maybe you missed the disclaimer at the top that says to keep it at the track.

i dont think it should be deleted, i mean were not encouraging anyone to street race, but if they do, theres nothing wrong with hearing about it.... just as long as it doesnt ecourages or tells them to race, its ok i think
oh and if someone doesnt like it,, well just dont visit that section
truth is that with or without "war stories" people are still gonna street race

Someone thinks,
"Wait til I tell CSS.NET about THIS street race. Ill be FAMOUS E-SUPERHERO-DRIVING-OMFGBBQWTF PWNZERS"
and hits some kid on a crosswalk. This holds more weight than politics and should be banned for "safety" reasons. I dunno if anyone has checked the age on this forum lately but its definitley not the 30-40 range as the mean.

^Yah maybe, like i said, if the opportunity appears most people will not back out of a race just because he has nowhere to write about it, even if we didnt have this section,, he/she might think "oh ill race and tell all my friends about it"... i dont streetrace myself... but the bottom line is those who do will do it reguardless if they have somewhere to speak about it... and if it does get deleted, they will probably just write about it in another section of the forum IMO

So if i used that line on you with politics it would be ok? Thats your only defense.
since people are gay enough to start censoring politics we might as well censor **** that kills people.

yup, it says theres even more childish idiots on this forum than we all thought.
I second a "drunk driving" section.
why not? theres over 150 people who voted in this thread who wouldnt have the right to say a damn word against it.

Where is the I don't know option?
While I regret creating that section when I started the site way back in 04, I am not going to jump the gun and kill it. It was never intended for street racing, nor do I support such activities. Anyone street racing is a fool and I hope the cops get them before they hurt anyone.
But about the section, note the description, I am pretty sure it’s directed towards track wins:
“Post your racing wins. CobaltSS.net does not support or encourage street racing. Be smart and take it to the track.”
Most of the stories in the section in question is pure BS and we keep it open to members only for that reason. I am willing to consider changes to the section if someone can make a good argument keeping both sides in mind. I am also willing to assign a moderator just to that section providing someone has the good argument I just mentioned.
Now another small point. Youtube and Streetfire are full of street racing crap and they don’t remove it to my knowledge.
Keep this thread clean or it will end here

youtube and streetfire are not forums. they are vid hosting sites. even if they were, does it really matter? is that the type of site you want this place to be? i'm confused.

if it was never your intent for members to post their deadly street races then why do you have a "drag racing" and "autocross" section? what type of racing is "war stories"? there is a very old thread in the admin/mod section where ryan and i volunteered to clean up any street racing threads if you ban it.
