Some people think of guns the way you think of cars. Some people have impractical collections and fetishes for both.
What you're proposing is the equivalent of bureaucrats forcing their way into your garage and taking a sledge hammer to your pride and joy, just because it isn't street legal.
Your arguments may have their points and reasons, but be a little more sensitive when you're talking about someone's [possibly] life-long passion for fine, precision machinery.
You're not just saying street racing is dangerous and that kind of driving/machinery should be confined to the racetrack. What you're imprudent to preach is more analogous to: All forms of motorsport are dangerous; all forms of motorsport are wasteful of human life; therefore all racecars serve no useful purpose and should be banned and destroyed. Museum pieces and all. Oh, and that anyone who would drive one is a "****ing danjerous paranoid psycho cowboy who should be eradicated."
Wouldn't it frustrate you just a tad if that were the consensus?
While this post was not entirely directed at Gunn, it amazes me every day that this forum newbie is not only
not banned, but maintains moderator status. Go look at his posts. Find something useful or helpful. I wonder how many of his nearly 4000 insults to this community have been self-deleted to
try to avoid embarrassment.

Ad hominem for the loss, Gunn.
