The "days of old" street races were dangerous, and the danger has multiplied, traffic density, general lawlessness etc have all increased, it just is not possible to do safely ever. What possible purpose would there be to drag in a public carpark metres from a mainroad other than macho bragging show-off crap.

Any whining about you guys had it why cant we misses the fact that there wasn't a safe well run world class facility like WSID available. Wanna drag make use of it. There are no excuses not to use WSID, all you need is a helmet, some $$'s, and car roadworthy enough for you to make a dick of yourself in.

10 sec time brags from street races are as credible as quintex shares!! These goons avoid the track cos their 10sec runs will prove to be more like the 16secs that an civic worked to the inch of its existance is good for!
Not trying to condon it at all but whats the point of letting WSIDW sit there empty most weekends. There are huge amounts of people who would use it if it was open all weekend but the people who live a few k's away dont like the noise. Wouldn't it be smart to have all these people out there in a controlled enviroment.

Even on big meets there the cops sit out the front and go over and through cars which is totally uncalled for, only dangerous/completely un roadworthy cars should be picked on along with anyone being stupid on the way in or out.
