You may need to define what is "Street racing" for the context of this thread. Two cars pulling away hard from a light up to about 5 miles over the limit and then backing off is a milder example. Two cars driving at high speeds, passing the normal flow, changing lanes, squeeling around corners, first one home, up the stairs and under the covers would be at the other end of the scale.

I did the "Two cars pulling away hard from a light up to about 5 miles over the limit and then backing off" thing a few times. Then I started noticing that the other guy didn't know he was supposed to back off at around 65 MPH and did some stupid things.
You may be smart enough to back off, but the other guy may be thinking it's a race to 120 MPH. Also, it doesn't matter how good you are. There are just too many unknown variables that could go wrong.
It's just not worth it for some ego trip. I'm now on the "street racing is always bad" side of this argument now.
