I actually live in AZ but saw this post...
I've been to the illegal street races a few times...starts around 1 every saturday
honestly...I like it...there is a bunch of badass cars there...and tons of cops
I just hate stupid people driving all crazy for no reason...I think that ruins it...some dumbass guy with a Contour was there and tried to u turn all fast...now his right front tire sits like this /
although the cops are really putting a crack down on it...they wont even let you chill at the gas stations anymore...wish was super tight cuz thats where everyone went to show off their car
