Why no street racing? Because most of them are probably lies. Everyone posts their kills, but no one ever posts when they get their ass handed to them. Plus, once you've heard one, you've heard them all:

I was on (insert highway) and there was this guy in a (insert car, preferably one either more expensive or with more horsepower). He was (with/without his girlfriend). I wasn't planning on racing, but he revved at me/gave me the lights so I figured, what the hell. On three honks/when the light turned green, we hit it. He pulled on me initially/I immediately pull x car lengths on him. I shifted to (insert gear) and I began to pull on him and had x + y car lengths on him and was doing z MPH when I shut it down. He gave me the thumbs up/got mad and sped off.

Cue multiple "good kill!" or "nice!" posts. Occasionally, one or two "take it to the track" posts. Maybe I'm getting old, but the stories don't do anything for me anymore.
