Lately in my neighborhood there have been some street races going on. The 6 guys that normally race through here only do it at dusk/night but when they do it, its f**king loud. Two of them have fart canned Acura's and one has an Eclipse GS-T with a missing muffler. There's a '94 F-150 that sounds like a damn lawnmower on steroids and the last two are both Corolla's with stupid loud engines.
They don't cause too many problems, and they don't have any accidents (knock on wood) up to this day. The cops in this city don't really care about the street races that go on here. Everyone on this block has called the cops at least 2 times and not a single arrest has been made. We've given license plate #'s and car descriptions yet nothing is done.
This is just ridiculous. Does anyone else have this problem?

Here where I'm at we have crotch rockets racing along with
mucsle cars every once in a while. Cops bust this stuff up hard and fast.
But I can go. 140 on a residential street :D
basically no :bolt:

If you want to stop it, see if you can get some video footage including license plate numbers and faces, and put it up on youtube and facebook. Include pics of the nearby street signs. Advertise the crap out of it as if you're trying to get people to go see it (create anon "fake" facebook page, etc). Give it a week, and if it doesn't get broken up, send the video link to the local news station.
Of course do this very very sneaky and anonymous otherwise they'll beat the crap out of you.

Knock on the doors of these guys houses and say stop it. So many freaking people are scared these days. If they are the type to be scared of be scarier than they are. Bolt some 4 x 4's to the ground.

Slight problem with that.
Nobody knows where they live.

not getting my license until I was 22...well lets just say I thought I was on a race track every time I got in my car...and when I owned The Challenger it became an obsession(thats the reason I sold it :cry)
now in my 40's with a herd of kids I understand why it is just stupid and taking other peoples lives into your hands is very far from "OK"

My friend's boyfriend is like that. He has a 1999 Eclipse GS-T with an upgraded engine/transmission and likes to fly down the streets as fast as possible. He's lucky that he hasn't hit anything and I guess that's why my friend never gets in the car with him unless she's driving.
Everyone that owns an Eclipse or Lancer feels like they're the street racing king at my school.

Hypotheticaly speaking here....
A paintball gun which has a large ammo capacity and high rate of fire.
Paintballs.
A freezer.
A couple of rounds from a roof top. Hold trigger for long burst will give away postion. Small short burst.
Here is the trick to make this work. The next night they do this, take a position on a rooftop in a different location far away from the last postion as possible to evade capture.
Profit!
Hypothetically speaking of course.

This would be the best option IMO. Deadstik's idea can be used as a fallback.
One thing I've noticed about these "thugs" is that they are usually push overs and really stupid. Had a similar problem around here. In addition to the supped up engines, they also dropped the suspension (some had to cross into oncoming traffic just to make a turn). So we put in speed bumps, fixed that problem.
After that they started loitering in front of our houses... so we payed the old guy down the street $100 to run out with a shotgun loaded with blanks when they were at his house. He happily obliged and fired off 3 shots in their general direction. We haven't seen the hoodlums since.

You know what's really funny?
The Eclipse GS-T was designed and produced by Chrysler, which is an American company, so therefore it is American and not Japanese. People who call it a "ricer" or a "rice burner" need to learn that the GS-T isn't a JDM. The Lancer however is a different story.

People who base their masculinity, or assumptions of other's masculinity or femininity, on the brand of car they drive have issues.

That may be... but any time I see 2 guys climb out of one of these with no female in tow, my mind makes assumptions that I know might be wrong and stereotypical and all that... but... hmmm

It's all about where you choose to race.
Never race where there is the possiblility of traffic and pedestrians or any inhabited buildings that could be hit.
It's no more difficult than driving a tank from one field to another without using the pansy "ezspawns" we have here in game.
If you're too lazy to find a track or a place where there is near zero possibility of involving innocents in a wreck, then you deserve to be executed by the relatives of the people you injure.

exicutoins are back! :banana:
Albiet there aren't tracks everywhere but back roads work. So long as it's on private propertyor something that they have permission to use.
And on the eclipse, I say Bah!!!!
If is don't have dual exhuast it ain't cool :bolt:

Well...This Eclipse doesn't exist in real life, but it does in a game.
This dual exhaust good enough for you?

The closest track around here is the one at Sunnyview Expo center, and that's open all year round from what i'm told. Its a great track yet these idiots cant seem to wrap their heads around it.

this is my house, and we have people come around the corner at about 65-70 and the speed limit is 35. I have told cops to come sit somewhere here, but per the usual they dont :lol we had a zip splat car with a fart can last summer kept coming around the corner doing e brake slides or some stupidness, so I heard him coming grabbed a 6 foot piece of steel and met him on the corner. I got him to stop and told him if I ever catch him coming through that fast again I was going to put the bar through his car. :devil needless to say now when he drives by its usually around 25 or so. now we got a bunch of new punks we gotta break :devil

Wtg man! :aok

We used to have a jerk down the street that was actually clocked doing 65 or our street (25mph). I feigned deliberately running out in front of him, but stayed on my lawn. He stopped, got out, started flashing gang signs and hit the ebonics. The idiot didn't realize he had a cop on his six the entire time, until I smiled and pointed at cruiser. He received four citations that day. Reckless Driving, Speeding, Running a Stop Sign and driving through the subdivision to avoid a traffic signal.
The cop walked over to me and asked why I did that. I told him: "Look right there." So he saw my son and friends playing and shook my hand. He also thanked me for stopping the car. He was parked one street over filling out a report when the jerk ran the sign. But saw him turn into the sub initially, then gunned it right past a marked car. He lost his license and deserved to.

video tape these guys and send it to the local news channel.

from what I hear, spike strips work rather well :aok

While I have a strong inclination to put out spike strips and nail 2x4s to the street, that will get the cops to come after you :) Crazy world.
Go to the town council, tell them to do their jobs and get the streets cleaned up. Don't ask the media to do what you have the right and responsibility to do. If they can't get their cops to get these kids, then get new elected people, they like hearing stuff like that.

Yep. Start here first. Then escalate to the County and finally the State level if need be. Cut no corners and you will see some results.

Hypothetically speaking of course.
dont forget to hypothetically also call an attorney. and of course hypothetically speaking if somebody calls in that there's a shooter in a rooftop, police may show up for sure. along with a swat team. of course it's all hypothetically speaking.

yes the paintball idea can lead to TONS of trouble. I cant remember what it is called but, if you shot the car and they crashed you would be charged with making them crash yada yada yada.

Heres how you fix your problem:
First, you gotta find a section of their route where there is both a curve, and some bushes or similar cover by the road that you can dive into. Figure out if they have a pattern for when they race, so you disrupt your sleep as little as possible.
Either on a night when they are racing, or every night, dress up in all black, and paint your hands/face black as well. Hide out on that corner on the side of the road opposite your cover, listening for the distinctive sound of stupidity as it approaches at high speeds.
When they're getting closeish, run and toss a couple of these out on the road, sprint through to the other side, and dive into the bushes :noid.

Or I could just lay down a couple of nails and tacks when I hear them coming from a few light years away. At least that way I wont be incarcerated and they wont know who did it.

hahaha me and a friend used big 1/2" lag bolts that were about 8" long driven through a 2x6 :rofl . He lives on a dirt road, and some punks in 4x4s were getting one side of their truck off in the ditch and digging up the drainage on the road. One of the town workers stopped and gave him crap, because "he has 4 wheelers" so we went up the road and stuck some boards down in the mud. A couple days later we see the kids dad hauling his truck tires down the hill, needless to say there hasn't been anymore ditch digging on his road :devil

Only issue is you might pop someone else's tire that way. Anyone not going stupid fast will see the boards and realize that somethings up.

Stand on the curb watching ,as they near you and before they have time to dodge, THROW A CONCRETE BLOCK INTO THE STREET!!!
I assure you it does work and will end your problem.
