How NYC Street Racing Became Unstoppable👮🏻♂️| Explained Ep.34

In essence New York’s street racing problem just boils down to 3 factors.
Every year there are less and less drag strips which house a safe and controlled environment for racing to happen thanks to the effects of urban development. Having access to a 500HP or more car is as easy as signing on the dotted line for a high interest rate loan on a used BMW and adding a downpipe and tune. And last of all social media encourages copy cats to emulate what they see for likes and follows but most lack the skillset required to properly control and handle a performance vehicle leading to more preventable accidents that burden the system as a whole.

Anybody buying a house near a drag strip should sign a contract saying they can't complain about the noise. How is this not a thing yet?
Can you please do an in depth Explained video about the Barra inline Turbo 6 engines Australia made.

I bought my first one 7 years ago, still have a BMW today. Only way I'd switch is if I get Porsche money.
1. Someone builds a drag strip far away from any houses.
2. Someone builds a house near a drag strip.
3. Someone buys a house near a drag strip.
4. They complain of the noise from the drag strip.
5. Drag strip gets shut down.
6. Now street racers all over the city cannot stop.

8. They get angry and question local gov. Why cant they build drag strips for wanna be racers? 😂
@@birtalanlorant5572Not to mention I’d bet a lot of the people street racing don’t have insurance so their premiums won’t go up because they’re not paying to begin with. The idiots that petitioned for the track to shut down are the only losers here

@@joeyc1563 they are fun tho
As someone with zero interest in drag racing, and almost no interest in street racing..
1. With a ticket that cheap, I might do it just for fun. A fine that costs less than the transit and ticketing at a proper event? And you may not even have to pay it? Nice.
2. I am thoroughly pissed off that someone can build a house next to a drag strip and then get it shut down for noise. YOU CHOSE TO GO THERE. It's absolutely stupid to drive this stuff out. It doesn't matter if most of us don't care about it - there's more than enough room for everyone. These things shouldn't be demolished or stopped just because most people don't care for it. That's such a stupid reason.
Go to a car meet or street race and just see how it is. For a lot of people It's an adrenaline rush and for a lot of other people It's being the winner
That 300C just macked a week ago. 3 ppl passed in that car because of speed
Cities across the country should be incentivizing drag strips to stay or go into business. Channel some of that money that would otherwise be used for ticketing, officer salaries, specialized vehicles, court staff salaries - it just boggles the mind that politicians are this dumb.
Don’t get it twisted. It’s not just the ticket, not the sizable amount your insurance premiums go up for 18 months due to the ticket. It’s like well over a grand in increased insurance premiums alone. Not just the ticket
As someone who has interest in racing this is what happens when you say one thing and mean another. You say take it to the drag strip but you mean go fuck your self. The street racer takes that and reciprocates to a tee. I don't care about your laws you need to fuck your self. Except one side has the argument of oh that's dangerous and one side has the argument of ok we'll do it anyways. The human mind will always seek control and will go insane to prove its free.

The "cutting up" epidemic has to be a contender against Takeovers for the #1 spot as the worst of the car community.
Also people who complain about living next to a race track are THE most dense people to have a conversation with.
Absolutely the takeover and cutting up scene in nyc is absolutely insane. All the youth seeing this wanna go out and replicate exactly that then crash
NOT car community in my eyes, just idiots that happen to have cars way too powerful for their puny little smooth brains to handle
@@saltysweatyhandscutting up is so dumb. I mean weve all at some point kind of moved faster than traffic to get to work but cutting for fun and risk is so useless 😊
@@onehundredpicks5531who said anything about it being useful? It’s fun, doesn’t need to have a reason for people to do it anyways
Also takeover is incredibly worse than cutting up. Takeover stops a whole intersection, almost always have people badly injured and/or murdered + robbed on the spot. Not including stolen cars and shit
“signing on the dotted line for a high interest rate loan on a used bmw” 😂 low blow.
great video
RIP Houston Raceway Park. Everything you said about the tracks closing 100% applied to the closure of that track.
Yeah I had so much fun at that track, went to every TX2K event from 2016 to 2023 and the night meets at Midnight Performance. That place will be missed
Should have drag races at industrial area that has factories that make noises.
Laguna seca is going through the same thing sadly
@@technocody9296shouldn’t build houses near racetracks.
Do they build houses right next to the airport? Fuck no.
Use some common sense.
@@bleachstain9785 I said industrial street or industrial park where factories and ship docks as example. Industrial districts usually have lot noises and weird smells from smog of pollution.
Ah yes the classic “we are going to shut down all local race tracks and then be confused by the increase of street races”
There’s no increase. NY has been the heart of street racing for decades. Fast and furious was based off of NY racing scene. Dominic Toretto is a real person. And his wife Letty, their story were taken from a real couple in New York. This is nothing new, social media just makes it more visible.
@@nerdmonty In New York City, police received more than 1,000 street racing complaints during a six-month period in 2020, a 500% increase from that same time period in 2019 - google
maybe people just complain more than they used to@@Umar-gw6fy
@@Umar-gw6fy If you used your brain, you would realize that during this time, 80% of drag strips in new york did not shut down. The increase is because of social media clout.
The ending was just perfect Bro😂. This whole thing was perfect. This video was needed. It’s really a whole different generation of car culture nowadays. Love from 🗽
Finally someone talks about the track closures and it’s impact on street racing. Thank you. Great vid. Hunts Points back in the days was a movie. Dope scene

@@337speed You realize some of us been to racetracks before Where981 was born though right? Some of us don't do this because of common sense, not because "we don't got it". I felt offended considering the driving skill in these videos is usually pretty low, they have decent risk managment skills though. It's certainly not about wether or not you "got it", the fact that most of these guys haven't crashed is pure chance and luck, I refuse to acknowledge "skill" when civilians had to make evasive maneuvers to prevent crashes in their videos. If these guys go to a circuit they will be slow. And some of the guys on the circuit might be slow in traffic but it strongly seems one takes more skill than the other.
I think its a symptom of a bigger problem. Cities being more crowded than ever, and paychecks, even for the richest of the middle class, being tighter than ever, at this point in American history, if you want any free time and disposable income, you either have to be a millionaire, or homeless. It's worse than ever with social media, nowadays that's everyone's only hobby, glued to their phones. It seems like all anyone does is wake up, phone, work, phone, bar, phone, sleep. Nobody lives for anything, and if you have any hobby that's mildly dangerous, good luck finding a place to explore it. There's no freedom, so no wonder taking over the streets and carving their names into the earth with tire marks, is the only thing these young kids have to look forward to.
Stay safe out there.
lol sure professor Bernstein… The problem is a collapsing empire. Unfettered Third World immigration turns anywhere into the Third World, this isn’t magic soil, people don’t magically change when they get here. This is the decline; floods of Third World detritus with zero respect for civilization coupled with the tail end of expendable income and this is what you get.
I sort of resonate with how you feel. I feel like we live in a weird age where no one really seems to have money, however conversely everyone seems to have loads of credit to take out loans to finance their bad decisions. Gen Z have come to terms they will never really own anything meaningful like a house or family. The only thing they can try to find meaning in is being famous.
Coincidentally I feel like this is a repeat of the 1920s, but 100 years later. Everyone has easy financing and society is focused on trying to satiate their hedonistic desires before the inevitable financial downturn.
Takeovers are not a form of street racing regardless what that last trash af need for speed game would have you believe.
@RealAnthonyJones LOL yeah I get what you're saying but you know what I mean, there's so little that the average person can do nowadays, that they'd rather commit crimes and risk their lives just for an inch of fun or some clout.
@@1whospeaksyep. Even going to nightclubs to socialize isn’t fun anymore. Very expensive. No one actually dances. Everyone is ready to film your ‘reaction’ to the slightest interaction. Also odd Male female gender dynamics currently going on too. Everyone on edge or instantly offended. Social interactions are extremely difficult so their car becomes their entertainment, so now they want a more entertaining car…performance…racing…now getting social attention and it becomes addictive…seek higher high…run cops…..
FANTASTIC DOCUMENTARY! I’m not a street racer but I have a 540i xDrive G30 stock b58. This yacht MOVES. And I haven’t even tuned it yet
That clip with the taxi totally blocked the cop to let the racer gain a gap

Used to live less than 10 minutes from island dragway in New Jersey. Being in high school in the early 2000s I loved it. People in town in those days knew it was just a part of living in that area and had little to no issues with it. People nowadays just complain about everything. Sad times..
Island Dragway still alive and well thank god! Only strip left in jersey😢
The end “you don’t got it and you’ll probably mack” 😂
I remember my dad taking to see the races when I was a kid. NYC racing scene back in the days was legendary.

@@prentaldvisory680 its Easier to notice the big ass monoblock armored wheels, tinted front windshield and in general a blacked out taurus than having to read the plate
You forgot island dragway! It is the last functional drag strip left in New Jersey, racers also famously went to old bridge township raceway park in that era as well.
My go to track until I moved down South a few months ago. Island is the best.
Man I miss raceway park
i miss E town
i never new there was a road/bridge across all of lake Michigan into IL that's impressive
Raceway park atleast has Formula Drift now
How have I missed your channel for so long? Love your content and your mello vocal delivery. So informative, entertaining and refreshing.
So New York forcing the closure of drag ships is mainly the reason.
Noted.
Well Done New York. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Nj as well. whole nyc/nj cutting up in traffic and drag racing
@@fixiotreeshin5809 they really made it bad for themselves. 🤦🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
Strip away Safe and enclosed environment to do these activities and now every other civilian on the road has to suffer because of it. Sadly really. 👎🏿
Has nothing to do with that, New York City never had race tracks, it’s all internet clout and lack of police enforcement.
@@Where2bub There was quite a few dots connected like it was a child playign a connect the dot color book. It was an amusing watch though ahahha.
@@fixiotreeshin5809 nah, don't confuse swimming through NPC's camping in the passing lane with drag racing. drag racing has a start and end point. not even remotely associated.
Pretty sad to see the state of race tracks now. Rare to see one within an hour of a metropolitan area. Even historic racetracks like Laguna Seca are getting heat from communities. They don’t know what they are destroying.
Even if they knew the history of Laguna Seca, I doubt they would care.
It's just an endless cycle of stupidity. People complain about illegal street racing, drivers flock to race tracks, houses get made around race tracks, people complain about the loud noises on the race tracks, race tracks get shut down, people complain about illegal street racing.
Son, I’m one of those people who lives near Laguna. I promise your mouth would be singing a different tune if the value of your house went down over 100k due to the constant shitbox exhaust notes. Track days are fun but living near one is annoying. But with such short sightedness, I doubt you’ll ever get to step foot in an house like mine…honestly.

NY is just 40i bmws with downpipes and a tune
Hey, it’s also occasionally a single turbo 35i

Not true, nyc has some of the craziest builds, we just dont flex, thats like saying cali is just all exotic cars
@@trapgodnah9022 most the popular drag builds are bmws in ny. Cali got lowriders, a big jdm scene in SoCal, Muscle, pre much everything. Only part you could say is mainly exotic is Hollywood and the hills. I'm just talking about the NY drag racing and ig community in general as of right now.
@@Ethan-fj7kt i don’t think you can comprehend, i compared your statement to someone saying “all cali has is exotics” because Nyc has way more crazy builds than bmw’s, we have jdm scene, and huge muscle car scene, and a exotic scene
Dude this is an amazing video 👏🏽
I’m watching your videos over. I can’t wait for the next one!
It broke my heart as a 2000s baby when ATCO announced its permanent closing last year
Wait what??? Damn I went there last 2 summers ago. I didn’t know they were shutting that down too 🤦♂️
I think Raceway Park shutting down drag racing hurt more....
Didn't even announce they did a rotary/ latin tuner event and closed down for good right after.
The last sentence of this video was priceless “if you see a wheres981 or seansean video don’t replicate it because you don’t got it and you’ll probably mack” 😂😂😂
Love your content/visuals, one else reporting like this 💯
The saddest part of this whole thing is the local 1/4 mile tracks closing down.
People moving next to race tracks and then complaining about the noise will never not amuse and infuriate me. It's not just drag strips either, people started building homes on the ridge around Lime Rock Park and complaining about the noise there too. It's not like Lime Rock is new, it's been a Le Mans staple for decades
Gonna be real upset if they get lime rock, one of the oldest tracks in the country with a rich history. Been spectating a driving there for a while now
Great video and ending. “You’ll probably mack” is hilarious
Amazing Video and indepth details
As a former Flatlands attendee, it must be said that kids are always going to do wild stuff, but when you limit the opportunity for adults to do things legally, they're gonna race on the street. Motorcycles...Lloyd Bayley (RIP) was the king of the pkwys and once he had the opportunity to race at Pocono, Summit Point, and NJMSP, he didnt have the need to race on the parkways anymore. People need a place to race their vehicles. If not, they'll just race em anywhere.
Fountain Ave as well ? 👀
@@kampoutkid of course, then up to Hunts Point. That was the Sunday routine. 🤣🤣
Whats 'pkwys'?
For years, San Diego PD helped sponsor an 1/8th mile drags at Qualcomm Stadium in a very successful effort to keep racers off the streets. But when the Padres moved downtown, the Chargers raked the city over a barrel and then bailed for LA and the city stopped investing in the property, the entire thing was torn down - and that was the end of our street-legal racing program. There needs to be more things like this.
One other factor you didn't mention: the populatity of Street Outlaws on Discovery.
Much more organization in the car community in the race legal days. All the takeover stuff started up almost immediately after they shut it down
I remember going to one of those events with my father, I might've been 9 or 10 years old at the time. It was certainly fun for me to experience that, hadn't thought about that event in years. Thanks for unlocking a childhood memory
@337speed loving your channel bro. Don't know how this just popped up in my feed all of a sudden, but I've binge watched like 10 vids so far!

If you want to stop the illegal drag racing STOP CLOSING DRAG STRIPS across the UNITED STATES. 🤷🏾
I said it once and i'll say it again. Bring back tracks and drag strips and this problem will go away!!
VR30 respect is appreciated 🙏🏿
Banger video as always 👌🏻
your explanations to how the tracks closed because of land development hit close to home for me. i live in south florida and my nearest track closed in 2023 to build a walmart distribution center. the track closed was PBIR in palm beach,fl. now my closeest is 3 hours north to orlando or 3 hours south to homestead.
I got caught in sudden traffic on the Hutch at midnight only to find it was street racers blocking the road to stage a race. I was 3 cars behind them. I gotta admit, it was pretty awesome. But those cars were WAY too fast for that bumpy section by the arched bridge at 95.
I wish they wouldn't block traffic though
@@fishyinnadurag610Good point, I agree. I was driving down from New Hampshire after a long-ass day of work and as cool as it was, I was definitely in the mood to just get to Manhattan and get some damned sleep.
@@ginsunh Selfish people slowed down traffic and risked the lives of other people. That isn't awesome- it's antisocial and inconsiderate. We live in a society, and we need to call these people out. Life is not a fast and furious movie. People need to get to work. People with families share these roads.

That was 1 hell of a documentary!
The OG of New York street racing vids is here 🙌
OG !!
I’m an enormous fan of this video and this problem existing
I don’t like that it is a problem, I don’t like that people can get hurt racing off/outside a track, without regulations and requirements for safety.
On the flip side. If the govt and private industry are going to take away rights and freedoms- tell them to fuck off and have the fun anyway. I like that.
I like knowing that the racing scene survived, and I like knowing that they don’t quit despite pressure from law enforcement.
I wish there was a healthier way to outlet this desire to go fast, but as soon as you start losing your freedoms, fight back for the sake of it. Great video. I hope these guys get away from cops nonstop
They could fix the drag racing by letting those spaces continue to exist, and supporting them.
They could fix people weaving through traffic by simply enforcing the passing lane laws already on the books.
Impossible to weave through traffic if lanes are used correctly.
@@niallk9336Exactly
off the bat already love this video because it started out with " maybe its because developers are getting all the tracks shut down" instead of " reckless people putting lives at risk for no reason"
i got started street racing in new york city like four years ago. had the time of my life.
The BMW F body performance envelope you speak of is strictly due to the advent of the B58 and most of them are xDrive (AWD) variants hence the launch performance.
Most of them maybe in the US. I see more non x drive and lower spec variants like 18 or 20
I don't know if you cover things outside the US but you should really dig into street racing in the middle east. In countries like Iraq the police don't come out past midnight so getting a race going is as simple as going up behind a car you wanna race and just repeatedly flashing your lights at them for a second till they join you. I swear I've seen basic bmw 328i's and ford explorer suv's absolutely hammering it down the highways and going sideways.
It's also the reason you see those videos of tuned toyota hilux's with V8's and 2J's letting it rip on the highways and those saudis doing those crazy slides in FWD economy cars like toyota camrys (the official name for it is 'hajwala').
Congrats: I've seen some videos, but this weekend, you've made me deep dive into Arabian street racing.
On tomorrow's episode of saudis in audis, we dive deep into the purpose built ttrs ...
Jokes aside ive seen some middle eastern videos where they swap a full gtr drivetrain, throw on big turbos and a tune, into some unsuspecting little toyota or small suzuki suv.
Then have a 0-60 in 3 second suv that can run with most supercars.
I wish that they would have an hour or even just a 30 minute period in the us where you could race and not be pursued.
That would be...very nice.
Sadly, despite how brainwashed people are here, we have very little freedom left compared to what our forefathers had.
Cant have a racetrack, if someone just doesn't like it, itll get shut down lol.
Cant say your opinion or even feel liks you know what you believe in without it offending people.
Cant ride a motorcycle without every other peraon you meet having ti come up to you and tell you not to ans how youre "risking other peoples lives".
Whatever that even means...
Things arent at all like they were when my grandparents were alive and its just getting worse as the next moody no value generation pushes every single possible hobby out of existence so we can be left with only going to movies, eating, and drugs.
How...stress relieving 😂
Oh yay.
I never knew that like damn
my hometown 😮💨 thanks for helping me learn more bout home, another great video!
This video is great quality
I feel like most land developers are like crappy parents. They think that their kids’ problems can be solved by taking away what was keeping the problem from getting bigger.
They are greedy. Once they get their sale/money, they leave and repeat elsewhere without a second thought
Thank you 337speed for doing the research and being culturally and factually correct
Awesome editing big w🌡📍❗

Cities in the 60s: “Quit racing on the street. Take it to a track.”
Cities in the 20s: “You can’t have that racetrack here anymore. It’s too loud.”

Good stuff, subbed
As someone who is born and raised in new york I've been to a few of these places like Hunts point which people just call it HP nowadays or on main the highways we still have some drag races, but actually seeing these pictures from Polaroids and knowing where these pictures are taken like a picture under the major Deegan (which is a highway) or even one that seems to be by the waterfront near Inwood it shows the the history of NY. And what it was before my birth. Thanks 337 I've found new appreciation to my state and it's history
I thought this was news anchor at first, talking about the "Street racing epidemic". But as I got deeper into the video and more stats started getting spat out I was like , "wait wait wait... This anchor knows a little too much about cars. Who IS this guy?" Then I realized it was dedicated car channel. 😆 Am I the only one who had this first reaction?
LMAO I was thinking the exact same!

@@337speed you’re a great man🫡
No way the freedom factory got a mini shoutout in this video! Love that! Love Cleetus!
Even if they get your license plate they still have to prove it was you driving the car at that specific time. Even if they arrest and charge you it will take months and possibly years to prosecute due to the backlogs in the legal system. Most of these cases are dropped as the DA and the Mayors office are more focused on Violent offenses in NYC.
Not if they wrap themselves around a pole before then
In Europe the person who's in the registration / insurance would get charged, doesn't matter if they drove or not.
That's a bad system@@GoodOlTazzy
@@FedoraSnatcher it's not. It holds people accountable. Don't share your car with shady people or someone you can't trust and you won't have any issues.

If you drive passed 10pm on any NYC highway for more than 15 mins you'll see a couple of small groups zooming through traffic going 100+.
Hope it gets worse tbh. Hate driving 2+ hours for track days. You got areas like floyd bennet field in brooklyn that are basically wasted space. Would make a perfect spot for a drag strip or even a racetrack.
Yup. & they take Floyd Bennett & make it a migrant shelter 😂 perfect place for a 1/8 or 1/4 drag or auto cross day.

My mom, who is in her fifties and not a good driver, is usually driving around this area at this time , getting home from work. I am just scared for her. I hope she is safe. If any street racers who see this ever see a red Tesla model y, please slowdown to pass them.
Bruh this hits harder than most of the comments under this vid. Half of Great Britain's best race tracks were ring roads built around old WW2 airbases. Croft, Goodwood, Thruxton, Silverstone....airstrips are just free fucking real estate. We could have Race Wars up there _right now._ Good luck having a street racing problem then.
(EDIT: Alexkraftracing mentioned the airstrip at Calverton being turned into a drag strip, so this MIGHT catch on.)
Crazy how applicable and accurate this is even in the Midwest with Heartland
Great video! Please do more about the underground car scene in NY
RIP drag strips 😢
As usual, 10/10 video. Super fascinating.
Wow, thanks!
