Curiosity question. While I completely understand and agree with everyones' concerns regarding street racing, why are some of you so down on a video that shows off just how bad *** our car is? What's the point of having the bad *** car if you have zero intention of repping it from time to time when the situation is okay to do so?

There was only 1 car that was ever in front of them (small SUV near the end of the video), so it was about as "safe" a street race as possible. It was just the two of them the rest of the time.

Dont you have a new road in Tx to go all out on?
I guess I missed the part where they endangered anyone other than themselves.

I wish! Only John Hennessy gets to go all out on it. everyone else just gets pulled over for doing anything more than 10-15 over. They were writing tickets left and right after his video came out.

Here's the video for anyone interested.

I agree and disagree with some of you regarding the street racing. Obviously, anything can happen whether you're going 80 or 160. IMO it is riskier to speed at night than anything else... regardless, some of you shouldn't be acting like it's such a big deal, since I'm sure the majority of us have passed people doing 100+.

I'm still looking for a closed course airstrip by the way...

This company provides a safe environment @ www.wannagofast.com! This would satIsfy a need for speed and go head to head with some other beastly cars.

Everyone has varying degrees of what is safe and what isn't. I would venture a guess that EVERY single IS-F owner on this board has broken the speed limit in their car, and probably by more than just a couple of mph. I would also venture a guess that there are very few people on the boards who have never taken their IS-F into triple digit territory. Who are we kidding? You don't buy a car like this and then putter around at 55mph on the highway.

Street racing is illegal and dangerous, but of course like other enthusiasts I like seeing videos of cars going fast. What bothered me about the video is that they passed some other guy who clearly was not a part of the race or assuming any risk while going way over 120mph and climbing.

I don't advocate street racing etc.... but I have opened my F up to the Gov' 3 times. Twice of which were right after I bought the car at approx 1500mi on a huge open stretch of interstate in Montana.

When you hit 173mph the car want's to keep going, it still feels strong, and it is extremely stable at that speed.

By far the most fun I have had with my car was at Miller Speedway in SLC Utah around the 27 turn course.

actually alot of people buy cars like this and higher hp cars and drive it like its a 89 civic.. so sad but different strokes for different folks. good thing i have a speed limiter cause i would try to get as close as possible to 200.

here in miami everybody street races,there is meets for that and i dont see anything unsafe here....why buy an is-F if ur not gonna step on it ...I do see ppl here doing the stupidest things sometimes....its about how we do things...i've seen hondas street racing in the middle of traffic or other ricers doing stupid things risking others just to get attention and thats something I dont do....I use the power of my F when I know I can without putting me or others in any risk

JC23 I've seen you street race we all do and if you don't you should start lol its fun :
