These kids give people who mod there cars a bad rep. The newspaper prints this crap about a few local dumbass kids and portrays that everyone that mods their car or hangs out around these areas are street racers and partaking in reckless behavior. When it's not the case. There always a few dumbasses that act stupid and ruin the fun for everyone. Funny thing is the guy in the Focus got beat by the atv. Jackass.

"The vehicles were a healthy mix of souped-up cars with 20-inch rims and turbo engines."

The parking lot is also a staging area for quarter-mile races between cars and at one point between a car and an all-terrain vehicle -- apparently the ATV won.
the focus got owned bahahahaha

yeah I'm sure that stock looking focus surley was Too bad his 20's are slowing him down. Maybe that's why he lost to the ATV.
Stupid newspaper.
Seriously though, since I've been gone everyone has gone boosted. There are a lot of boosted cars in the area, but I doubt that there were that many out there. Dude was right about Bossier City though. Those cops are mean as hell and don't take ****. Call em the Bossier Marines. They will give you a ticket if you look at them the wrong way.

Big Rob has a little shameless behaviour in the past
I don't understand why the police go in and bust people when they are just hanging out and not doing anything illegal. They act like its going to turn in to street racing everytime groups get together to show of the latest mods. I also don't get why people act like doughnuts in a parking lot are such a bad thing. If it's an open area and people are out of the way, there is no harm in doing it in my opinion. Same goes for burnouts. Why do cops bust people for burning out if they aren't speeding or loosing control? I don't do any of those things (I drive a civic, I can't), so I'm not taking up for it because I do it. It just seems wrong.

It's because of these idiots and the ignorant media. We all get stereo-typed into the same category as the people doing this crap.
As far as the burnouts and doughnuts. It can be considered reckless behavior and tire marks all over the lot might be undesirable. A lot of the rednecks come by with their POS pickups and start doing that **** with people/cars nearby. They think it's cool I guess?

"the lyrics, beats and rhythms of rappers Mike Jones, 50 Cent and Lil John exploded from different car music speakers."
