Note: I am not speaking to people who race their car legally.

Okay so you know how there is street racing, right? And everyone wants to get stuff that makes their car go faster? I say lets do away with that danger, you can have just the same amount of fun seeing how fast your car can stop from 60-0 as you can when you are trying to get a fast 0-60 speed.

Heres why

The force you experience going faster is the same force you experince going slower, they are just different in direction. Meaning you can get the same "g-forces" slowing down that you can speeding up.

What do you think of this idea? It sounds safe eh? No more wrecks?

You still have to get to 60?

And you have WAY more control of a vehicle when it is moving versus stopping. Plus how would you get people to stop at the same time or the same spot?

"I challenge you to a street stop"

Sounds pretty gay to me?

Great fun on a bike!

But it’ll still get you in trouble.

I was an unwilling passenger in a "high speed stop" for fun. My D

kheaded friend says haha watch this and pulls his ebrake. We lost control and rolled several times. This was a long long time ago, but point being you have very little control when power braking. You are only safe as long as you have traction, once you loose it Jesus has your wheel.

BTW, it was not fun for me at all.

It reminds me a lot of the "oh S#@! there is a cop" part of a street race.
