I just hope they don't start harrasing groups hanging out more-so than they do now and saying they are "organized racers".

01 Teg is right, it's like a virus and it's not going away.

I understand a few pulls here and there but organized races is whack I believe. What is sad is that a lot of people use big meets that started just as a chill meet but now is a big meet to find new people to race which attracts negative attention from the police.

Well since I saw the other thread about this first I posted over there. So Im just pasting what I wrote in the other thread here
All of that police footage was from years ago lol. The video of the cops blocking everyone in was taped bye 2 guys that escaped the blockade after a few hours with a group of cars without getting caught. How come they didnt show that? haha... They do one of these news reports about street racing right before the summer every year. They show all the dumb kids with ghetto rigged Honda's. Im not hatin Honda guys, just stating facts here. And of course every idiot they interview talks about The Fast and The Furious. They never show the guys with fast cars racing on these reports. Oh yeah thats because the guys with fast cars are smart enough to go to places where they dont cause a big scene so they dont get attention from the cops. These reporters are so dumb and clueless as to what really goes on in the streets of Philadelphia . If those reporters actually saw some of the actual fast cars race, they would probably sh1t their pants haha... Also that car with the ghetto street glow kit behind the guy at the end of the video was Awesome. Lets you know about the quality of cars that go to Holstein to race

As long as cars are around street racing will never stop. Philly has been one of the biggest street racing scenes on the east for years and it still is.

That probably has to do with Philly being the 2nd largest city in the east

anyone wanna go racing tonight!? nah jk.. street racing isnt going anywhere. if philly wants to eliminate it completely(which isnt possible) they would have to make "illegal mod" laws. like cali, ride height, modified intake/exhaust nitrous etc etc etc. and pull any1 over that has any of the above. thats the only way 2 slow it down.. u get pulled over 3 times 4 an illegal mod impounded car. that would end it REAL quick. although 98% of this forum would be ticketed.. not that i agree with it, but thats how you WOULD slow it..

But no matter what they do they cant stop it. And cops use things like these to target areas that people hang out at, for instance, we hang out at the wawa in WC, cops drive by every half hour, sometimes their nice and stop and talk, but then sometimes their assholes and tell us to leave...then we go to wendys. But we just hang out there, we arent racing, we arent doing burnouts, we arent drinking, we arent doing drugs. we are chillin infront of our cars in a group, eating the food of whereever we are at the time. Most of us go into wawa 2-3 times a night if we are there for a few hours. And then when you get pulled over or something like that , or get in an accident, cops bust your balls for this and that, oh those arent the wheels that came with the car are they, oh that car is too low, oh its too loud, blah blah blah. Try as they might they will not be able to stop it, unless they do that cali thing with the impounding of cars, and they would need to get those guns from 2f2f and arm every cop in the city with them, the ones they shoot at the car and it shuts everything down..lol That being said, i do not race, nor do i think it is the smartest thing in the world. And if your gonnna, why the hell would you go somewhere the cops are prob ready to nail? go somewhere far far away from anyone else, get your speed, prove ur point, you have the faster car, dont crash into anyone, dont kill anyone, and its not that big of a deal IMO.

Like the amount of cigs, and food that people buy when we're there is crazy. 15-30 people buying food in exchange for like 10 parking spots that are unused and out of the way seems like a pretty good ****in deal to me. We're friends with alot of the people that work there, but when we see certain people come out and start looking around we just all get in our cars and go to wendys next door...and then we all buy wendys food, so nobody can tell us we're loitering..etc because we are eating their food, and they put picnic tables outside for their food to be eaten at. We bring them money, they kick us out. make sence? no, do they still do it? yes.

Matter of fact, I am going to do that momentarily. Do we know if the complaints are coming from Wawa manager's? Or just the police saying they're receiving complaints?
