As someone with zero interest in drag racing, and almost no interest in street racing.. 1. With a ticket that cheap, I might do it just for fun. A fine that costs less than the transit and ticketing at a proper event? And you may not even have to pay it? Nice. 2. I am thoroughly pissed off that someone can build a house next to a drag strip and then get it shut down for noise. YOU CHOSE TO GO THERE. It's absolutely stupid to drive this stuff out. It doesn't matter if most of us don't care about it - there's more than enough room for everyone. These things shouldn't be demolished or stopped just because most people don't care for it. That's such a stupid reason.
Go to a car meet or street race and just see how it is. For a lot of people It's an adrenaline rush and for a lot of other people It's being the winner
Cities across the country should be incentivizing drag strips to stay or go into business. Channel some of that money that would otherwise be used for ticketing, officer salaries, specialized vehicles, court staff salaries - it just boggles the mind that politicians are this dumb.
Don’t get it twisted. It’s not just the ticket, not the sizable amount your insurance premiums go up for 18 months due to the ticket. It’s like well over a grand in increased insurance premiums alone. Not just the ticket
As someone who has interest in racing this is what happens when you say one thing and mean another. You say take it to the drag strip but you mean go fuck your self. The street racer takes that and reciprocates to a tee. I don't care about your laws you need to fuck your self. Except one side has the argument of oh that's dangerous and one side has the argument of ok we'll do it anyways. The human mind will always seek control and will go insane to prove its free.

There’s no increase. NY has been the heart of street racing for decades. Fast and furious was based off of NY racing scene. Dominic Toretto is a real person. And his wife Letty, their story were taken from a real couple in New York. This is nothing new, social media just makes it more visible.
@@vibingwithmonty In New York City, police received more than 1,000 street racing complaints during a six-month period in 2020, a 500% increase from that same time period in 2019 - google
@@Umar-gw6fy If you used your brain, you would realize that during this time, 80% of drag strips in new york did not shut down. The increase is because of social media clout.
I think its a symptom of a bigger problem. Cities being more crowded than ever, and paychecks, even for the richest of the middle class, being tighter than ever, at this point in American history, if you want any free time and disposable income, you either have to be a millionaire, or homeless. It's worse than ever with social media, nowadays that's everyone's only hobby, glued to their phones. It seems like all anyone does is wake up, phone, work, phone, bar, phone, sleep. Nobody lives for anything, and if you have any hobby that's mildly dangerous, good luck finding a place to explore it. There's no freedom, so no wonder taking over the streets and carving their names into the earth with tire marks, is the only thing these young kids have to look forward to. Stay safe out there.
lol sure professor Bernstein… The problem is a collapsing empire. Unfettered Third World immigration turns anywhere into the Third World, this isn’t magic soil, people don’t magically change when they get here. This is the decline; floods of Third World detritus with zero respect for civilization coupled with the tail end of expendable income and this is what you get.
I sort of resonate with how you feel. I feel like we live in a weird age where no one really seems to have money, however conversely everyone seems to have loads of credit to take out loans to finance their bad decisions. Gen Z have come to terms they will never really own anything meaningful like a house or family. The only thing they can try to find meaning in is being famous. Coincidentally I feel like this is a repeat of the 1920s, but 100 years later. Everyone has easy financing and society is focused on trying to satiate their hedonistic desires before the inevitable financial downturn.
@RealAnthonyJones LOL yeah I get what you're saying but you know what I mean, there's so little that the average person can do nowadays, that they'd rather commit crimes and risk their lives just for an inch of fun or some clout.

The ending was just perfect Bro😂. This whole thing was perfect. This video was needed. It’s really a whole different generation of car culture nowadays. Love from 🗽
Man, I feel dumb now as an older person. In 92 my dad said son, I have enough money to buy you a brand new car. If I buy you a brand new car, you won't take care of it and you will dog the crap out of it. ( the whole time I'm shaking my head saying no I won't daddy, knowing I would. ) Instead of buying a brand new car, we went to the junk yard. At the time you have to realize that all I was hearing about was Cutlass this and my Cutlass that. So my dad and I bought a P.O.S 1979 Oldsmobile Cutlass. This thing looked bad and smelled even worse. We found a friend who had a shop that we could use, only if we could get rid of the smell in that car. We finally did get the smell out and the work began. This was my 14th birthday present from my parents. We gutted everything in and out of this car and even dropped the frame from the body. It took almost 3 and a half years of solid work to finish this beast of a car. About 3 months before we finished the car, my dad would suffer a stroke and while in ICU, my dad would suffer a fatal heart attack. My mother kept begging me to go out there and finish that car, your daddy would want that. I got lucky and the friends shop we were using, this man was an awesome mechanic. We finished the car, kinda in July of 1995. Right before my 17th birthday, I drove this monster to my house. 3 things left to do on this car. 1. Paint it. 2. Get the seals to work better on my drop top. 3. A killer sound system. The paint job I went with. It was a black and green with blue, red and silver pearl bowling ball paint job. This car looked so freaking good. Depending on how the light hit the car, is what color you might see. We put 5 coats of clear on the paint and it was very close to turning the clear yellow. ( I knew where to look to see the kinda yellow. We talked about sanding it down but decided not too. ) The sound system. I had 4 6x9s in the back dash. 2 12 inch Infiniti subs on what I called the luggage rack underneath the 6x9s back dash. Then to top it off on the subs, I had 4 15 inch Infiniti subs. In the front I had 2 horns and 6 small tweeters. This is where you know when you're old. I had 2 Orion Red Beast pushing the subs. I had 1 Yamaha Amp that pushed the highs and mids. Now this wasn't just an Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, oh no. This car was powered buy a Chevrolet Corvette LT1 with 2 Turbos pushing this motor at the fly wheel 850hr at 6,500rpm We had to find a shop to fit the new driveshaft that was coming in. The Cutlass was a little bit longer. I loved this car so much and I know my dad would have been proud. I brought it to the race track to run it in a quarter mile. ( Now this is funny and kinda off a little bit. My girlfriend at the time had a dodge dynasty and one of her friends ran it at the track. This car ran a 10:86. Had I not see the paper, I wouldn't have believed it. ) So I'm getting ready and the safety guy asked me, where's your helmet at son?? I said helmet??? I had to barrow one of the guys helmets I had never even met before. I take off and I made a great run and I knew it too. I come back and I had been told that this car should pull 11s or high 10s. I get back to the front and the guy stopped me. He said son get this car off my track right NOW and do NOT come back until you have a 12 point roll cage in it. The car ran 11:19 at 126mph. I was so pissed that I didn't beat my girls stupid Dogde!!! I went back and looked at her sheet to compare the reaction time and so forth. I noticed something that I had over looked every time I looked at that paper. Her car ran a 10:86 on an 1/8 mile track. It didn't even give the MPH on that sheet. When I was 19yrs old, I got popped doing 144 in a 55 zone. Evading and about 4 other charges. I ended up giving my car up instead of getting 2 felonies and losing my DL for 5 years. My dad would have shot me for that. Anyway I know this was long and I know my car couldn't keep up with Today's monsters. It was something that dad and I build basically from scratch. The total cost for my car was $32k. My dad only planned on spending $25k at the time.
You forgot island dragway! It is the last functional drag strip left in New Jersey, racers also famously went to old bridge township raceway park in that era as well.
Used to live less than 10 minutes from island dragway in New Jersey. Being in high school in the early 2000s I loved it. People in town in those days knew it was just a part of living in that area and had little to no issues with it. People nowadays just complain about everything. Sad times..
It’s the property developers wanting more profits. Every generation sees the next as overly sensitive, but that perception is manufactured to divide us.
Pretty sad to see the state of race tracks now. Rare to see one within an hour of a metropolitan area. Even historic racetracks like Laguna Seca are getting heat from communities. They don’t know what they are destroying.
It's just an endless cycle of stupidity. People complain about illegal street racing, drivers flock to race tracks, houses get made around race tracks, people complain about the loud noises on the race tracks, race tracks get shut down, people complain about illegal street racing.
Son, I’m one of those people who lives near Laguna. I promise your mouth would be singing a different tune if the value of your house went down over 100k due to the constant shitbox exhaust notes. Track days are fun but living near one is annoying. But with such short sightedness, I doubt you’ll ever get to step foot in an house like mine…honestly.

The "cutting up" epidemic has to be a contender against Takeovers for the #1 spot as the worst of the car community. Also people who complain about living next to a race track are THE most dense people to have a conversation with.
@@saltysweatyhandscutting up is so dumb. I mean weve all at some point kind of moved faster than traffic to get to work but cutting for fun and risk is so useless 😊
Also takeover is incredibly worse than cutting up. Takeover stops a whole intersection, almost always have people badly injured and/or murdered + robbed on the spot. Not including stolen cars and shit
As a former Flatlands attendee, it must be said that kids are always going to do wild stuff, but when you limit the opportunity for adults to do things legally, they're gonna race on the street. Motorcycles...Lloyd Bayley (RIP) was the king of the pkwys and once he had the opportunity to race at Pocono, Summit Point, and NJMSP, he didnt have the need to race on the parkways anymore. People need a place to race their vehicles. If not, they'll just race em anywhere.
For years, San Diego PD helped sponsor an 1/8th mile drags at Qualcomm Stadium in a very successful effort to keep racers off the streets. But when the Padres moved downtown, the Chargers raked the city over a barrel and then bailed for LA and the city stopped investing in the property, the entire thing was torn down - and that was the end of our street-legal racing program. There needs to be more things like this. One other factor you didn't mention: the populatity of Street Outlaws on Discovery.
I remember going to one of those events with my father, I might've been 9 or 10 years old at the time. It was certainly fun for me to experience that, hadn't thought about that event in years. Thanks for unlocking a childhood memory
Finally someone talks about the track closures and it’s impact on street racing. Thank you. Great vid. Hunts Points back in the days was a movie. Dope scene
your explanations to how the tracks closed because of land development hit close to home for me. i live in south florida and my nearest track closed in 2023 to build a walmart distribution center. the track closed was PBIR in palm beach,fl. now my closeest is 3 hours north to orlando or 3 hours south to homestead.
I don't feel bad for anyone here, the legalities of this only exist because of systematic problems. We had places for sports driving for years, and we've ignored the relevance of them in American culture just to make another house that no one can afford. Let them race, and let the city deal with the problems they've created for themselves.
People moving next to race tracks and then complaining about the noise will never not amuse and infuriate me. It's not just drag strips either, people started building homes on the ridge around Lime Rock Park and complaining about the noise there too. It's not like Lime Rock is new, it's been a Le Mans staple for decades
Gonna be real upset if they get lime rock, one of the oldest tracks in the country with a rich history. Been spectating a driving there for a while now
Street racing occurs-> build Drag strip to allow safe racing->urban development happens near drag strip->to many noise complaints->Drag strip closes down-> Street racing occurs. It's literally a Cycle that America and its states continue to perpetuate. How come churches are exempt from income and federal property taxes, but not Drag strips. You wouldn't have as much localized street racing if those tracks weren't shut down🤷♂
The last sentence of this video was priceless “if you see a wheres981 or seansean video don’t replicate it because you don’t got it and you’ll probably mack” 😂😂😂
This channel is going to blow up. The way you cover topics in a clear and concise way while still being interesting is amazing. And the production value is top notch!
I don't know if you cover things outside the US but you should really dig into street racing in the middle east. In countries like Iraq the police don't come out past midnight so getting a race going is as simple as going up behind a car you wanna race and just repeatedly flashing your lights at them for a second till they join you. I swear I've seen basic bmw 328i's and ford explorer suv's absolutely hammering it down the highways and going sideways. It's also the reason you see those videos of tuned toyota hilux's with V8's and 2J's letting it rip on the highways and those saudis doing those crazy slides in FWD economy cars like toyota camrys (the official name for it is 'hajwala').
On tomorrow's episode of saudis in audis, we dive deep into the purpose built ttrs ... Jokes aside ive seen some middle eastern videos where they swap a full gtr drivetrain, throw on big turbos and a tune, into some unsuspecting little toyota or small suzuki suv. Then have a 0-60 in 3 second suv that can run with most supercars. I wish that they would have an hour or even just a 30 minute period in the us where you could race and not be pursued. That would be...very nice. Sadly, despite how brainwashed people are here, we have very little freedom left compared to what our forefathers had. Cant have a racetrack, if someone just doesn't like it, itll get shut down lol. Cant say your opinion or even feel liks you know what you believe in without it offending people. Cant ride a motorcycle without every other peraon you meet having ti come up to you and tell you not to ans how youre "risking other peoples lives". Whatever that even means... Things arent at all like they were when my grandparents were alive and its just getting worse as the next moody no value generation pushes every single possible hobby out of existence so we can be left with only going to movies, eating, and drugs. How...stress relieving 😂 Oh yay.
The BMW F body performance envelope you speak of is strictly due to the advent of the B58 and most of them are xDrive (AWD) variants hence the launch performance.
I feel like most land developers are like crappy parents. They think that their kids’ problems can be solved by taking away what was keeping the problem from getting bigger.
I’m an enormous fan of this video and this problem existing I don’t like that it is a problem, I don’t like that people can get hurt racing off/outside a track, without regulations and requirements for safety. On the flip side. If the govt and private industry are going to take away rights and freedoms- tell them to fuck off and have the fun anyway. I like that. I like knowing that the racing scene survived, and I like knowing that they don’t quit despite pressure from law enforcement. I wish there was a healthier way to outlet this desire to go fast, but as soon as you start losing your freedoms, fight back for the sake of it. Great video. I hope these guys get away from cops nonstop
They could fix the drag racing by letting those spaces continue to exist, and supporting them. They could fix people weaving through traffic by simply enforcing the passing lane laws already on the books. Impossible to weave through traffic if lanes are used correctly.
I got caught in sudden traffic on the Hutch at midnight only to find it was street racers blocking the road to stage a race. I was 3 cars behind them. I gotta admit, it was pretty awesome. But those cars were WAY too fast for that bumpy section by the arched bridge at 95.

This anchor knows a little too much about cars. Who IS this guy?" Then I realized it was dedicated car channel. 😆 Am I the only one who had this first reaction?
Solution sounds easy to me. Since the NYPD has such a large budget, they can afford to build a drag strip in a convenient location to let street racers have a safe place to race off the streets.
Truth be told a lot of these idiots aren't racers do not confuse the take over crowd with street racers. Takeovers and street racing are two opposite poles and the media needs to quit trying to portray them as the same thing. As Racers we 100% oppose these takeovers.
Nobody mentioned anything about a takeover in this video. You bringing them up does nothing but bring awareness to more curious individuals who will find it fun and jump into it. You have to think before you type.
Even if they get your license plate they still have to prove it was you driving the car at that specific time. Even if they arrest and charge you it will take months and possibly years to prosecute due to the backlogs in the legal system. Most of these cases are dropped as the DA and the Mayors office are more focused on Violent offenses in NYC.
@@FedoraSnatcher it's not. It holds people accountable. Don't share your car with shady people or someone you can't trust and you won't have any issues.
@@thekeithbutts Man, i live in the Netherlands, but the only tracks we got here put you in to a barrier with the smallest of mistakes, they cost a ton and there aren't many track days, financially it's just so much cheaper to go on the streets and there is less of a chance of wrecking your car too, there is basically no point
If you drive passed 10pm on any NYC highway for more than 15 mins you'll see a couple of small groups zooming through traffic going 100+. Hope it gets worse tbh. Hate driving 2+ hours for track days. You got areas like floyd bennet field in brooklyn that are basically wasted space. Would make a perfect spot for a drag strip or even a racetrack.
My mom, who is in her fifties and not a good driver, is usually driving around this area at this time , getting home from work. I am just scared for her. I hope she is safe. If any street racers who see this ever see a red Tesla model y, please slowdown to pass them.
Bruh this hits harder than most of the comments under this vid. Half of Great Britain's best race tracks were ring roads built around old WW2 airbases. Croft, Goodwood, Thruxton, Silverstone....airstrips are just free fucking real estate. We could have Race Wars up there _right now._ Good luck having a street racing problem then. (EDIT: Alexkraftracing mentioned the airstrip at Calverton being turned into a drag strip, so this MIGHT catch on.)

maybe people just complain more than they used to@@Umar-gw6fy
@@Umar-gw6fy If you used your brain, you would realize that during this time, 80% of drag strips in new york did not shut down. The increase is because of social media clout.
More arrests more profits
I think its a symptom of a bigger problem. Cities being more crowded than ever, and paychecks, even for the richest of the middle class, being tighter than ever, at this point in American history, if you want any free time and disposable income, you either have to be a millionaire, or homeless. It's worse than ever with social media, nowadays that's everyone's only hobby, glued to their phones. It seems like all anyone does is wake up, phone, work, phone, bar, phone, sleep. Nobody lives for anything, and if you have any hobby that's mildly dangerous, good luck finding a place to explore it. There's no freedom, so no wonder taking over the streets and carving their names into the earth with tire marks, is the only thing these young kids have to look forward to.
Stay safe out there.
lol sure professor Bernstein… The problem is a collapsing empire. Unfettered Third World immigration turns anywhere into the Third World, this isn’t magic soil, people don’t magically change when they get here. This is the decline; floods of Third World detritus with zero respect for civilization coupled with the tail end of expendable income and this is what you get.
I sort of resonate with how you feel. I feel like we live in a weird age where no one really seems to have money, however conversely everyone seems to have loads of credit to take out loans to finance their bad decisions. Gen Z have come to terms they will never really own anything meaningful like a house or family. The only thing they can try to find meaning in is being famous.
Coincidentally I feel like this is a repeat of the 1920s, but 100 years later. Everyone has easy financing and society is focused on trying to satiate their hedonistic desires before the inevitable financial downturn.
Takeovers are not a form of street racing regardless what that last trash af need for speed game would have you believe.
@RealAnthonyJones LOL yeah I get what you're saying but you know what I mean, there's so little that the average person can do nowadays, that they'd rather commit crimes and risk their lives just for an inch of fun or some clout.
@@1whospeaksyep. Even going to nightclubs to socialize isn’t fun anymore. Very expensive. No one actually dances. Everyone is ready to film your ‘reaction’ to the slightest interaction. Also odd Male female gender dynamics currently going on too. Everyone on edge or instantly offended.

The ending was just perfect Bro😂. This whole thing was perfect. This video was needed. It’s really a whole different generation of car culture nowadays. Love from 🗽
Man, I feel dumb now as an older person. In 92 my dad said son, I have enough money to buy you a brand new car. If I buy you a brand new car, you won't take care of it and you will dog the crap out of it. ( the whole time I'm shaking my head saying no I won't daddy, knowing I would. )
Instead of buying a brand new car, we went to the junk yard. At the time you have to realize that all I was hearing about was Cutlass this and my Cutlass that. So my dad and I bought a P.O.S 1979 Oldsmobile Cutlass. This thing looked bad and smelled even worse.
We found a friend who had a shop that we could use, only if we could get rid of the smell in that car. We finally did get the smell out and the work began. This was my 14th birthday present from my parents.
We gutted everything in and out of this car and even dropped the frame from the body. It took almost 3 and a half years of solid work to finish this beast of a car. About 3 months before we finished the car, my dad would suffer a stroke and while in ICU, my dad would suffer a fatal heart attack.
My mother kept begging me to go out there and finish that car, your daddy would want that. I got lucky and the friends shop we were using, this man was an awesome mechanic.
We finished the car, kinda in July of 1995. Right before my 17th birthday, I drove this monster to my house. 3 things left to do on this car.
1. Paint it.
2. Get the seals to work better on my drop top.
3. A killer sound system.
The paint job I went with. It was a black and green with blue, red and silver pearl bowling ball paint job. This car looked so freaking good. Depending on how the light hit the car, is what color you might see. We put 5 coats of clear on the paint and it was very close to turning the clear yellow. ( I knew where to look to see the kinda yellow. We talked about sanding it down but decided not too. )
The sound system. I had 4 6x9s in the back dash. 2 12 inch Infiniti subs on what I called the luggage rack underneath the 6x9s back dash. Then to top it off on the subs, I had 4 15 inch Infiniti subs. In the front I had 2 horns and 6 small tweeters.
This is where you know when you're old. I had 2 Orion Red Beast pushing the subs. I had 1 Yamaha Amp that pushed the highs and mids.
Now this wasn't just an Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, oh no. This car was powered buy a Chevrolet Corvette LT1 with 2 Turbos pushing this motor at the fly wheel 850hr at 6,500rpm
We had to find a shop to fit the new driveshaft that was coming in. The Cutlass was a little bit longer. I loved this car so much and I know my dad would have been proud.
I brought it to the race track to run it in a quarter mile. ( Now this is funny and kinda off a little bit. My girlfriend at the time had a dodge dynasty and one of her friends ran it at the track. This car ran a 10:86. Had I not see the paper, I wouldn't have believed it. )
So I'm getting ready and the safety guy asked me, where's your helmet at son?? I said helmet??? I had to barrow one of the guys helmets I had never even met before.
I take off and I made a great run and I knew it too. I come back and I had been told that this car should pull 11s or high 10s. I get back to the front and the guy stopped me. He said son get this car off my track right NOW and do NOT come back until you have a 12 point roll cage in it. The car ran 11:19 at 126mph.
I was so pissed that I didn't beat my girls stupid Dogde!!! I went back and looked at her sheet to compare the reaction time and so forth. I noticed something that I had over looked every time I looked at that paper. Her car ran a 10:86 on an 1/8 mile track. It didn't even give the MPH on that sheet.
When I was 19yrs old, I got popped doing 144 in a 55 zone. Evading and about 4 other charges. I ended up giving my car up instead of getting 2 felonies and losing my DL for 5 years. My dad would have shot me for that.
Anyway I know this was long and I know my car couldn't keep up with
Today's monsters. It was something that dad and I build basically from scratch. The total cost for my car was $32k. My dad only planned on spending $25k at the time.
Cool story kid
You forgot island dragway! It is the last functional drag strip left in New Jersey, racers also famously went to old bridge township raceway park in that era as well.
My go to track until I moved down South a few months ago. Island is the best.
Man I miss raceway park
i miss E town
i never new there was a road/bridge across all of lake Michigan into IL that's impressive
Raceway park atleast has Formula Drift now
Never thought my fox would end up in s 337 speed video! You just inspired me to make more videos of it!

Used to live less than 10 minutes from island dragway in New Jersey. Being in high school in the early 2000s I loved it. People in town in those days knew it was just a part of living in that area and had little to no issues with it. People nowadays just complain about everything. Sad times..
Island Dragway still alive and well thank god! Only strip left in jersey😢
It’s the property developers wanting more profits. Every generation sees the next as overly sensitive, but that perception is manufactured to divide us.
The end “you don’t got it and you’ll probably mack” 😂
I remember my dad taking to see the races when I was a kid. NYC racing scene back in the days was legendary.
Pretty sad to see the state of race tracks now. Rare to see one within an hour of a metropolitan area. Even historic racetracks like Laguna Seca are getting heat from communities. They don’t know what they are destroying.
Even if they knew the history of Laguna Seca, I doubt they would care.
It's just an endless cycle of stupidity. People complain about illegal street racing, drivers flock to race tracks, houses get made around race tracks, people complain about the loud noises on the race tracks, race tracks get shut down, people complain about illegal street racing.
Son, I’m one of those people who lives near Laguna. I promise your mouth would be singing a different tune if the value of your house went down over 100k due to the constant shitbox exhaust notes. Track days are fun but living near one is annoying. But with such short sightedness, I doubt you’ll ever get to step foot in an house like mine…honestly.

The "cutting up" epidemic has to be a contender against Takeovers for the #1 spot as the worst of the car community.
Also people who complain about living next to a race track are THE most dense people to have a conversation with.
Absolutely the takeover and cutting up scene in nyc is absolutely insane. All the youth seeing this wanna go out and replicate exactly that then crash
NOT car community in my eyes, just idiots that happen to have cars way too powerful for their puny little smooth brains to handle
@@saltysweatyhandscutting up is so dumb. I mean weve all at some point kind of moved faster than traffic to get to work but cutting for fun and risk is so useless 😊
@@onehundredpicks5531who said anything about it being useful? It’s fun, doesn’t need to have a reason for people to do it anyways
Also takeover is incredibly worse than cutting up. Takeover stops a whole intersection, almost always have people badly injured and/or murdered + robbed on the spot. Not including stolen cars and shit
It broke my heart as a 2000s baby when ATCO announced its permanent closing last year
Wait what??? Damn I went there last 2 summers ago. I didn’t know they were shutting that down too 🤦♂️
I think Raceway Park shutting down drag racing hurt more....
Didn't even announce they did a rotary/ latin tuner event and closed down for good right after.

The saddest part of this whole thing is the local 1/4 mile tracks closing down.
As a former Flatlands attendee, it must be said that kids are always going to do wild stuff, but when you limit the opportunity for adults to do things legally, they're gonna race on the street. Motorcycles...Lloyd Bayley (RIP) was the king of the pkwys and once he had the opportunity to race at Pocono, Summit Point, and NJMSP, he didnt have the need to race on the parkways anymore. People need a place to race their vehicles. If not, they'll just race em anywhere.
Fountain Ave as well ? 👀
@@kampoutkid of course, then up to Hunts Point. That was the Sunday routine. 🤣🤣
Whats 'pkwys'?
Maaan it's a damn good feeling seeing the Q50 get some love in this video, its such a good entry faster car and I didn't even do bolt ons yet
Same I wasn’t even aware how people use them when I first got it , now people flash there beams when they wanna swim :/
How have I missed your channel for so long? Love your content and your mello vocal delivery. So informative, entertaining and refreshing.
For years, San Diego PD helped sponsor an 1/8th mile drags at Qualcomm Stadium in a very successful effort to keep racers off the streets. But when the Padres moved downtown, the Chargers raked the city over a barrel and then bailed for LA and the city stopped investing in the property, the entire thing was torn down - and that was the end of our street-legal racing program. There needs to be more things like this.
One other factor you didn't mention: the populatity of Street Outlaws on Discovery.
Much more organization in the car community in the race legal days. All the takeover stuff started up almost immediately after they shut it down
I remember going to one of those events with my father, I might've been 9 or 10 years old at the time. It was certainly fun for me to experience that, hadn't thought about that event in years. Thanks for unlocking a childhood memory
The millisecond I see an upload from 337, I click on them without thinking twice.

Finally someone talks about the track closures and it’s impact on street racing. Thank you. Great vid. Hunts Points back in the days was a movie. Dope scene
your explanations to how the tracks closed because of land development hit close to home for me. i live in south florida and my nearest track closed in 2023 to build a walmart distribution center. the track closed was PBIR in palm beach,fl. now my closeest is 3 hours north to orlando or 3 hours south to homestead.
I don't feel bad for anyone here, the legalities of this only exist because of systematic problems. We had places for sports driving for years, and we've ignored the relevance of them in American culture just to make another house that no one can afford. Let them race, and let the city deal with the problems they've created for themselves.
People moving next to race tracks and then complaining about the noise will never not amuse and infuriate me. It's not just drag strips either, people started building homes on the ridge around Lime Rock Park and complaining about the noise there too. It's not like Lime Rock is new, it's been a Le Mans staple for decades
Gonna be real upset if they get lime rock, one of the oldest tracks in the country with a rich history. Been spectating a driving there for a while now
I said it once and i'll say it again. Bring back tracks and drag strips and this problem will go away!!
Speeeed hope this pause on videos is because you’re cooking up a banger😅😅😅
Exactly what I’m doing
@@337speed you’re a great man🫡
Street racing occurs-> build Drag strip to allow safe racing->urban development happens near drag strip->to many noise complaints->Drag strip closes down-> Street racing occurs. It's literally a Cycle that America and its states continue to perpetuate. How come churches are exempt from income and federal property taxes, but not Drag strips. You wouldn't have as much localized street racing if those tracks weren't shut down🤷♂

Cities in the 60s: “Quit racing on the street. Take it to a track.”
Cities in the 20s: “You can’t have that racetrack here anymore. It’s too loud.”
This channel is going to blow up. The way you cover topics in a clear and concise way while still being interesting is amazing. And the production value is top notch!

Reminds me of that lotus 4 door sedan that nobody could beat 😂
Moral of the story: race tracks save lives
I don't know if you cover things outside the US but you should really dig into street racing in the middle east. In countries like Iraq the police don't come out past midnight so getting a race going is as simple as going up behind a car you wanna race and just repeatedly flashing your lights at them for a second till they join you. I swear I've seen basic bmw 328i's and ford explorer suv's absolutely hammering it down the highways and going sideways.
It's also the reason you see those videos of tuned toyota hilux's with V8's and 2J's letting it rip on the highways and those saudis doing those crazy slides in FWD economy cars like toyota camrys (the official name for it is 'hajwala').
Congrats: I've seen some videos, but this weekend, you've made me deep dive into Arabian street racing.
On tomorrow's episode of saudis in audis, we dive deep into the purpose built ttrs ...
Jokes aside ive seen some middle eastern videos where they swap a full gtr drivetrain, throw on big turbos and a tune, into some unsuspecting little toyota or small suzuki suv.
Then have a 0-60 in 3 second suv that can run with most supercars.
I wish that they would have an hour or even just a 30 minute period in the us where you could race and not be pursued.
That would be...very nice.
Sadly, despite how brainwashed people are here, we have very little freedom left compared to what our forefathers had.
Cant have a racetrack, if someone just doesn't like it, itll get shut down lol.
Cant say your opinion or even feel liks you know what you believe in without it offending people.
Cant ride a motorcycle without every other peraon you meet having ti come up to you and tell you not to ans how youre "risking other peoples lives".
Whatever that even means...
Things arent at all like they were when my grandparents were alive and its just getting worse as the next moody no value generation pushes every single possible hobby out of existence so we can be left with only going to movies, eating, and drugs.
How...stress relieving 😂
Oh yay.
I never knew that like damn
This was well put together, great video !

The BMW F body performance envelope you speak of is strictly due to the advent of the B58 and most of them are xDrive (AWD) variants hence the launch performance.
Most of them maybe in the US. I see more non x drive and lower spec variants like 18 or 20
This channel is great! I love how its presented. Well depthed knowledge, great presentation styles, thorough but not dry. Thank you!
I’m watching your videos over. I can’t wait for the next one!
I feel like most land developers are like crappy parents. They think that their kids’ problems can be solved by taking away what was keeping the problem from getting bigger.
They are greedy. Once they get their sale/money, they leave and repeat elsewhere without a second thought
I’m an enormous fan of this video and this problem existing
I don’t like that it is a problem, I don’t like that people can get hurt racing off/outside a track, without regulations and requirements for safety.
On the flip side. If the govt and private industry are going to take away rights and freedoms- tell them to fuck off and have the fun anyway. I like that.
I like knowing that the racing scene survived, and I like knowing that they don’t quit despite pressure from law enforcement.
I wish there was a healthier way to outlet this desire to go fast, but as soon as you start losing your freedoms, fight back for the sake of it. Great video. I hope these guys get away from cops nonstop
They could fix the drag racing by letting those spaces continue to exist, and supporting them.
They could fix people weaving through traffic by simply enforcing the passing lane laws already on the books.
Impossible to weave through traffic if lanes are used correctly.
@@niallk9336Exactly
I got caught in sudden traffic on the Hutch at midnight only to find it was street racers blocking the road to stage a race. I was 3 cars behind them. I gotta admit, it was pretty awesome. But those cars were WAY too fast for that bumpy section by the arched bridge at 95.

Great video! You should cover the motorcycle street racers next. Keep up the good work Bro!
Solution sounds easy to me. Since the NYPD has such a large budget, they can afford to build a drag strip in a convenient location to let street racers have a safe place to race off the streets.

Truth be told a lot of these idiots aren't racers do not confuse the take over crowd with street racers. Takeovers and street racing are two opposite poles and the media needs to quit trying to portray them as the same thing. As Racers we 100% oppose these takeovers.
Nobody mentioned anything about a takeover in this video. You bringing them up does nothing but bring awareness to more curious individuals who will find it fun and jump into it.

Even if they get your license plate they still have to prove it was you driving the car at that specific time. Even if they arrest and charge you it will take months and possibly years to prosecute due to the backlogs in the legal system. Most of these cases are dropped as the DA and the Mayors office are more focused on Violent offenses in NYC.
Not if they wrap themselves around a pole before then
In Europe the person who's in the registration / insurance would get charged, doesn't matter if they drove or not.

Yup. & they take Floyd Bennett & make it a migrant shelter 😂 perfect place for a 1/8 or 1/4 drag or auto cross day.

My mom, who is in her fifties and not a good driver, is usually driving around this area at this time , getting home from work. I am just scared for her. I hope she is safe. If any street racers who see this ever see a red Tesla model y, please slowdown to pass them.
Bruh this hits harder than most of the comments under this vid. Half of Great Britain's best race tracks were ring roads built around old WW2 airbases. Croft, Goodwood, Thruxton, Silverstone....airstrips are just free fucking real estate. We could have Race Wars up there _right now._ Good luck having a street racing problem then.
(EDIT: Alexkraftracing mentioned the airstrip at Calverton being turned into a drag strip, so this MIGHT catch on.)
RIP Atco Dragway. It was recently suddenly shut down after being there even before i moved in when I was a kid. I don't know the real reason but it's sad to see it go....
Love your content/visuals, one else reporting like this 💯
Great video and ending. “You’ll probably mack” is hilarious
Shoutout to 1Stock, ROC NYC, and Three Dirty 5 for putting nyc racing on the map 🔥
Don’t celebrate just yet, this low key snitching
no its not, everybody from NY already know who they are, even officers @@mikey8258

Sucks that Moroso Raceway/ Palm Beach International Speedway is gone. The street racing here in South Florida has gotten worse since.
Now many locals there drive home asleep at the wheel of their Tesla's on the Long Island Expressway....
How are people comfortable surrendering their control over to a vehicle like that? I didn't even want to use cruise control my first year driving.
my hometown 😮💨 thanks for helping me learn more bout home, another great video!
Rest in peace 1Stock
1:10 I'm pretty sure that U-Haul wrapped 300 is the same that had a fatal crash recently from takeover type activity.
It was shown later in the video
