ive been on this earth a long time now. been racing on the street for over 30yrs. i have my own set of rules of where ill run. and i promice you its as safe as you can get for running on the street. rule 1 no driveways no side streets on the road im running on dont want no one trying to backout of a drive or to cross the street. and the far end has to be blocked by one of us.i have one thousands of $$ over the yrs and never had any trouble.but the track is still the best place to run.
