Not saying I could watch it all day but WOW. Not boring.

Don't get me wrong. It would be hypocritical for me to say that I haven't had a little too much fun on occasion. But the very idea of organized street racing, or going out specifically looking for people to race on public roads is hazardous and pointless. Why not just take it to a track, where you can prove you can beat someone? Then there's the highway racing. When you race from a roll, it's a completely arbitrary contest. It doesn't involve driver skill at all. It's simply who has more power.
