Why no "Kills" section?

I was over on rx7club.com checking it out, and I noticed they have an entire "kills" section, where they can list the cars they have raced and beaten.

Seeing as how this is essentially the same site (same site owner, etc), why whenever we list a car we have raced on this site it is "against the rules" due to the worry regarding a flame war, while on rx7club.com it is allowed?

BOOSTD7, if you're on here, any reasoning behind this? Is it because the RX-7 is faster and better suited for racing?

now on a serious note, racing is not safe... it can kill you and others.... You probably don't want a forum that encorages street racing....

It's like bragging to others about how drunk you were one night comming home from a party..... just not a smart thing to do...

Tell me again, what's the point of a "Kills" section?

Oh, and since you mentioned forum rules...

11. Do not post a thread solely aimed at getting the attention of another forum member (i.e. posting ATTENTION FRED SMITH!) The forum provides a private messaging system for contacting individual forum members.

No doubt, racing is not safe. But that's not the point of this thread. The point is, why is it against the rules here to post about racing but not on the other site? Why should the rules be different?

Last night I beat a Chevy Cavalier up the onramp to the freeway. I think it made my wife hot for me.

Because we're not "the other site" and decided a long time ago that we didn't want to deal with the BS and petty bickering that goes along with a Kills section.
