Cool, But I Picture Some Form of Major Tragedy

I'm all for going fast, but not when the public is allowed to be close by. I mean, I love The Blue Angels, but I also don't like the fact that they buzz major cities and groups of civilians. Heck, I guess we do it all the time with commercial airliners.

Anyway, this is cool, but I just picture explosions and dead people. That's all a rocket is: a controlled explosion.

Racing? Yawn. Call me when they let them start shooting at each other. Also, Nascar would be a hell of a lot more fun if it was more like Spy Hunter.

I guess this is a little more your speed?

I know that it's hard to resist any opportunity to throw out a Robot Jox clip, but in this day and age that sort of thing hardly ranks. A modern upgrade might hit the spot, but they would probably ruin the human factor in a remake. Those poor bastard spectators! Here's a similar clip that shows what a modern take might look like:

Ummmm... Robot Jox? Have I been hiding in a cave?

Obviously.
