Forbidden Streets [RACING CREW - TAGLESS]

[Satoshi]

Street racing is an unsanctioned and illegal form of motor racing that occurs on a public road. (...) Though typically taking place in uncrowded highways on city outskirts or in the countryside, some races were held in industrial complexes. Street racing can either be spontaneous or well planned and coordinated. Well-coordinated races are planned in advance and often have people communicating via 2-way radio/citizens' band radio and using police scanners and GPS units to mark locations of local police hot spots. Opponents of street racing cite a lack of safety relative to sanctioned racing events, as well as legal repercussions arising from incidents, among street racing's drawbacks. The term street racing must not be confused with the legal and governed sport of drag racing.

(...)
There are various motivations for street racing, but typically cited reasons include:
Generally, street racing is not sanctioned and thus leads to a less rigorously controlled environment than sanctioned racing, to the enjoyment of some participants.
Street racing is cited as an activity which is available to people who are otherwise under-age for entertainment at traditional venues such as bars.
A community generally springs up around the street racing "scene", providing social interaction among the participants and cliques therein.
The opportunity to show off one's vehicle
The simple and uncomplicated excitement of racing without the entry fees, rules, and politics typical of the sport.
The excitement of racing when law enforcement is certain to give chase.
A lack of proper, sanctioned racing venues in the locale.
Street races are sometimes wagered on, either by the participants or observers.
To settle a bet, dispute, etc. between fellow racers (ex. one believes that they are the better racer, both racers are vying for the same woman's affections, etc.).

DANGERS:
Argonath RPG Police Department lists the following consequences of street racing:
Traffic collisions, including fatalities
Trespassing on private property
Auto theft rates, carjackings[/li][/list]
Because vehicles used in street racing competitions generally lack professional racing safety equipment such as roll cages and racing fuel cell and drivers seldom wear fire suits and are not usually trained in high-performance driving, injuries and fatalities are common results from accidents. Furthermore, illegal street racers may put ordinary drivers at risk because they race on public roads rather than closed-course, purpose-built facilities.

Because racing occurs in areas where it is not sanctioned, property damage (Torn up yards, signs and posts being knocked down from accidents) and damage to the fences/gates closing an area off (in the case of industrial parks, etc.) can occur. As the street racing culture places a very high social value on a fast vehicle, people who might not otherwise be able to afford blazingly fast but very expensive vehicles may attempt to steal them, violently or otherwise. Additionally, street racers tend to form teams which participate in racing together, the implication above is that these teams may be a form of organized crime or gang activity.

We wish to roleplay a small modern crew of car racers in Los Santos with diverse characters. As of now our characters and those who roleplay with us are all born in the United States, and that is what we prefer. We're trying to portray a modern crew mainly operating in the Las Colinas area. We expect our members and those who roleplay with us to create their own roleplay as much as they can.
