did any body venture down to thwe races like during back to the 50s or during any car shows that braought a lil mor attention to the street races around town. ever since that big bust like 3 4 years ago street racing hasent been the same

just curious

will

 

I was down there during car craft.

 

I would go down to uni many friday and saturday nights. the cops got to be so annoying. you would just be parked somewhere andthe cops would be all over you. You could be getting gas at a gas station and the cops would say something like "you better not be here when i come back in 5 minutes". I understand they are trying to do their job, but i dont think they have to be ****** to everyone.

One time i was at wendys (one of the places people like to meet up). I was eating a burger i had just pirchased and the cops came around and said that everyone had to leave. I asked what the reason was and he said he would start arresting people for trespassing if they didnt leave. I showed him my receipt and my food i had just purchased and he yet again threatened to arrest me.

I am not a fan of how much the cops turned to jerks this summer.

 

I never had any problems with the cops, but it is a well known fact that racing down there on friday/saturday nights is a great way to get in serious trouble. We need a new spot to cruise around other than the midway area. The problem isn't the cruising with most cops, it's the loitering. Businesses hate it because a bunch of kids hanging around is going to drive away some customers. It's the businesses that ask the cops to get people out of there..it's not the cops just doing it on their own.

 

I sometimes hang with the mnsubaru group down on uni. They have permission from the owners of firestone to be at their place. The cops still come around and harass everyone there.

 

**** yea...man like 4 years ago when i started goin with my buddy we had like 6 spots around stpaul that we could always go and race now we go somewhere and the damn cops just bust nuts i agree that their doin their job i agree they are usually ********,yea we need to find a spot where everybody knos too meet cuz usually people leave and scatter and everyone goes to these random places.i was down theyre by that wendy's and holiday gas station for car craft and it was insane with the old chevelles and stuff like popin there front tires off the ground,i stopped goin the last time i was down there i was so drunk i passed out on top of a truck lol,couple of my buddies roll uni well not anymore (winters here)but they got cars worth showing off but yea
