I think that's a stretch. I never said anything at all about street
racing. I've never street raced, and never will. However, if it's
contests of speed you're looking for, feel free to rent Summit Point
Racetrack any time, and I'll be happy to attend.

Then it must be investigated!! Although, top 10 in BC could mean just run of
the mill for the Colorado canyons, some of the tight flatlander stuff, I'm
sure the Californians would object to any ranking which doesn't put them at
the top of the heap, etc etc.

I see. I suppose the GoldWing video guy we just saw would qualify then as
well.
