Anyone Still Street Race ?

[TubbysZ28]

12 Years AGO South Philly was Jumpin on The Weekends with Muscle Cars / F Bodys / Mustangs . Took Wife to A/Port all I saw was Ricers WTF ??

[NJSPEEDER]

the fastest cars all run at the track anymore. no need to play in the streets with the weed whacker patrol.

[Rob WS6]

Theres almost nothing but rice in Philly anymore... Ive spent alot of time over there in the "racing scene" (if you can even call it that). All the big dogs are very low key and only go out on the street when the race is going to happen... then they go back to where every they were hanging out.

[armymp1983]

Cops are all over the races in Philly. You even get ticketed for watching the races now

[Slow 88]

Philly is a thing of the past!! The track is where it's at now because all the ricers blew up all of the good spots...

[ChickenLittle]

same up here in north jersey...ricers ruined it. Damned F&F movies:evil:

[best of both]

In the eighties It was easy to pick a race just by hanging out in the Somerville Mall. Locally Findern Ave late at night or Cottentail Lane In Somerset. There were places all over North Jersey and the Section of 78 that was on finished earlier on. Working for Trans End we did custom rear a transmission work on serious Street Racers from NY and Philly. The cars would come in with the Hoods Chained shut so we could not tell anyone what they had. Today as most have stated the imports have brought too much attention, The tracks have stepped up with the street nights to keep things safe. If you can lighten your car te even up the game you can still have fun with the imports and maybe make some cash.

About 2 years ago I went to philly a couple times and there was hardly anything good. I'm friends with a guy who has one of the fastest cars that used to go there, and from what he tells me, all the big cars set it up, race, then leave.

[Mike]

one night we were there, chillin in a parking lot about a block from the street they were racin on (we parked there in a warehouse lot and walked over through a field) and in pulls a guy with a backhalved vega on a trailor....unloaded, warmed the car up and did the burn out in the lot, then pulled up and raced someone, pulled around, loaded up and left

i do every now and then but im not telling where. there could be narcs in here. are you a narc? huh?huh? whats that narc? i cant hear you narc heheh

[sleeperMULLET]

I'm not even going to attmept to street race, its hard enough for me to get traction when driving normally in this cold weather. But when I'm driving around in my '86 Accord with 356,000 miles and I pull up to a new mustang or vette I do wish I was driving the Z28 becasue I would give them a run.

The good stuff always show up when your not in your good car! It happens to me all the time :-(

The ricers still do it up North. The new thing is Highway pulls.

[baddest434]

i gave up street racing after blowing past a cop on radar @ over 110 mph. there were 3 of us racing and only this guy in a mustang got caught, i was waiting for tickets in the mail but none ever came so i quit pressing my luck.
TRACK ONLY 4 ME

[chemicalstylez]

Last street race i went to in philly was in 2002 when there was still some decent cars there. Last year i took my old 95 Z28 there which was bone stock and didnt lose a single run. In simple terms its pathetic. Other than that its not worth it anymore, too many risks now a days, and you really can't trust the guy next to you. Maybe its my age speaking, but street racing lost its luster.

[Frosty]

but street racing lost its luster.

:werd:

[Kid Racer]

yeah....i go but i dont do tomuch racing i go more forthe cars to see em and all....last week we had i think it was a 1994 z28 camaro and a 95 mustang go at it...the camaro won....lol....but i only race if people start talking ****....i am waiting to get my 383 done so i can go racing at teh track and all....then lests see those ricers spray on me..

Retired......atleast that's what someone keeps telling me lol. I just keep it at the track anymore. I can't roll around on anything less than a full slick anymore since the 4400 stall went in.

[bubba428]

i raced my car the other morning when it was about 31* out...it was a tuned 96 civic...i ate him...cause i didn't have breakfeast...and my 3.4 was hungry...but i got him off the light and he never caught up...then yesterday i found a nice curvy street and took that at betwine 70-100...so yea u wanna go i got u right here...i'll probably loose if u got a forth gen but i got 3rds handled

Those civics are tough man. There are tough to beat when they get tuned with the computer and stuff. I had one at the track fly by me really good, and he looked all normal and stuff but when the light went green i couldnt get past him.

I'll race you, I really dont race on the street anymore cause the uniform guys are always on my case cause i got a fast car and they dont seem to like the fact that im racing on the street a lot. I did like 120 on a side street once and had to find a parking lot to hide in so they wouldnt take my license from me and throw me in jail. They know my car so i gotta keep it hidden at my home when its light out. At night is all cool so name the place and stuff, preferably near here so I dont have to take my car on the highway too much.

EDITS: you also reminded me that we need to race soon cause its still cold out and my car gets the bests power when its cold. This on time it was like 127* degrees in the shade and i was driving and raced this eclipse and had the ac on cause it was hot ... Good thing it was a older eclipse cause i barely beat him, i think it was a spider or something.

and he was like "your cars slow" and i yelled that my car is not slow but he didnt hear it cause he had the loud radio going and i dont have that on mine cuase it was all stolen and stuff but i dont care anymore because it was havy and weighded me down. so now im not scared cause my cars lighter.

Wow....just wow....

[deadtrend1]

Wow....just wow....

hey man, don't be hatin'. His cars quick to be able to take down the tuner hondas. Ill race you to, and send you home crying cause someone beat your car

[Frosty]

Mad fast **** yo

[deadtrend1]

Mad fast **** yo

it is dude. Youll be sorry you made funs of people like us. just cause your car cost more new then ours you think we slow. We aint. I can beat you right off the assembly line no problem and parts for your car cost $1000000 more just for the name, so i can add all the parts i want for cheaper.

[Frosty]

Oh man, I just got :owned:

Just you wait, I'll bring more vette owners to back me up, just you wait pal!@

[ChickenLittle]

yeah, those Civics are just so hard to beat...mad fast yo

[bubba428]

the point of the civc was cause this kid keeps talking **** and i just keep stomping on him...every one laughs at the 3.4 but the parts a real cheap and if you know what your doing you can have a pretty quick car...i've seen 3.4s with 270hp all motor and theres the posibility of more with the right cam and lifters... now i live near ac and any of you who are near by here will back me up on this...pull into a the air port circle wawa or any wawa near AC or Pville with a loud car(flowmaster catback on mine, no it doesn't sound like rice in a can) and see if a ricer doesn't try to act all big

i wasnt talking about that...i found it funny that you said youve got 3rd gens handled...unless youre running in the 11s/12s with your 3.4 you ought to rethink the statement.

[bubba428]

What the hell was the original topic??

EDIT: ah, "Does anyone still street race?"

The answer to your question is ................








Sometimes!

[conlinj]

only on labor day!

[chemicalstylez]

Last weekend i ate at Tony Lukes.... and a girl i was hanging out with asked me about the races cause shes never seen them. After much nagging I decided to drive to front street to check it out.... basically i drove through the shopping center parking lot, saw one 5.slow and all imports so i said F this. On the way out of course i have 2 weed wackers harrassing me for a race. One followed me over the bridge back to jersey ontop of my ass... so when we hit 295 south he went flying around me, and to my amazement the girl actually said "your gonna take that from him".. so i downshifted and floored it right by him. But to confer with everyone else, it still sucks fat balls over there.

[bubba428]

yes street racing...much fun...ummmm....yea...

[deadtrend1]

I just really hate racing at night because the headlights create drag when they are raised .... :)

[bubba428]

camaros don't have that problem...::does peanut buter jelly dance::

[baddest434]

...i'll probably loose if u got a forth gen but i got 3rds handled

Street or track motor to motor or spray to spray, you're gonna be sent back into retirement this year

[Slow 88]

Street or track motor to motor or spray to spray, you're gonna be sent back into retirement this year

That's the talk I want to hear! But, as of right now I have too much going on to even look at the car so we'll hook up in Late summer early fall...

[TNTramair]

good ol philly street racing is alive and well fellas...just need to know someone who knows someone to get in where ya fit in. we dont just stand around and wait for people to run anymore, everything gets set up. basically ya lock it in, go do your thing, than go back to where they are hangin that night. mainly so we dont have alot of people just hangin around waiting for stuff to happen cause thats what attracts attention....also keeps the imports away.

heres a few vids from this past year...

phillys a joke now. me and a friend were bored about a month ago and decied to go up, we took his minivan because we didnt wanna look obvious if the cops came and it was all slow ass ricers. we raced the minivan 5 times and won every time (its a stock 89 caravan) it was so funny when you beat a gutted civic in and mini van full of car parts and a whole 350 laying in the back.

hey i know that car :P that silver iroc vert lives right down the street from my house, its got a 505 in her. but they are veterans, like some one said before, he loads it up on a trailer, takes it out, races one or two races, and gets the hell out of there. he said he won 18g's last year on the races, and hes beaten the fastest cars in NY, DE and MD i believe. that car is no joke, but other than the veterans, who are extremely serious about it, the races are pretty much pointless any more unless you want to run against rice...
