Kids fad in the northeast San Fernando valley (buying, price)

[V8 Vega]

Not sure if they do it all over.
A fad with kids here for awhile is to spin circles with their cars in intersections and even on freeways. Horribly dangerous anywhere but especially on the freeway. They must do it at 3 AM but even so.
They leave black tire skid circle marks.
I finally saw a kid doing it with a old rear wheel drive BMW. In order to keep momentum up he had to go pretty fast and was out of control or right on the edge of it the whole time. He nearly hit the curb several times.
If a cop caught you I’m sure it would at least be a reckless driving charge. I haven’t heard of any attempt to crack down on it.
Does Not affect or bother me, if they want to ruin their car and take a chance on jail thats their business. You do this with a car you don’t value much.

Its a south central thing... These youngsters jam streets for hours when they do this. Might’ve spread to other hoods of the city.

Eating up expensive tires. No wonder they are poor.

I've noticed this trend in the bay area as well. We've always had sideshows but these donut tiremarks are showing up everywhere over the last year.

East Bay phenomenon, which has spread 500 miles to the south. The Valley's finally gotten hyphy ):

This is nothing new. Kids in the Midwest were doing it in the Fifties. Kids whose dads were buying their tires, that is.

Lol. Yeah, kids in the 80's and 90's along the Gulf Coast did this, but I would say parking lots were location of choice rather than intersections.

Tires are on what they spend the money they make from selling stale, overpriced candy in front of supermarkets and gas stations.

In the bay area they've blocked off traffic on freeways and bridges to do sideshows. Quite a few late nite side shows have shootings. I can't believe this wasn't happening in So Cal already.
