Is this some weird dick-swinging contest?

I live in downtown Atlanta, about 20-something stories up. Down below there is an empty parking lot. On weekends, a buck of dorks drive their cars in there and park.

Then they spend about 20 or 30 minutes revving their engines as long and loud as they can. That creates a huge cloud of exhaust. It is fucking louder than a bunch of Harleys.

They they all line up and exit the parking lot and drive around until they reach Peachtree street and rev their engines while driving. That, of course, produces incredibly loud backfires that echo all over downtown. They drive in a line while doing this and ignore traffic lights.

It seems like a competition to see who has the loudest engine.

So WTF? Do people do that in your cities?

I must be getting really old. In the ancient days of my youth, the idiots would find a nice, straight stretch of police-free road and drag race.

They've probably seen too many doods run up the backside of a semitrailer and gotten fragged irl!

Plus, Eminem made "rap battles" popular, so now the kiddies play it safe, otherwise their mommies will yell at them.

Tuners!

If you were to go down to that parking lot and peek into one of those cars you would see that the real drag race is on a laptop tuning to get the most power possible, then messing with the code to de-tune the car to get all the popping and fire from the exhaust that you're so annoyed with.

Maybe you're not too old as you think to get a rice rocket and a "waffle", and show them dinks who's a "tuna"!

seems to me like sumpin' right up your API.

The Fast And Furious movies on TV every weekend could be responsible.

People in my building are normally quiet, but tonight they started yelling and howling and shit.

I thought it was a riot or something then one of them shouted, "Go Dawgs!'

Fucking bore-ball games.
