City with the best racing scene

My vote has to go to Houston. You can race so many places, miles and miles of highway and long flat streets. The import and domestic scene is great to. So what does eveyone one else think?

Miami is pretty good. The races can get pretty big before the police roll in.

Definitly Miami area along US27 used to be huge, but now it has moved to a new place that is a big secret in our racing world lol. I woulnt race anymore in Florida because of this new law called agressive driving tha is a criminal offense (I know from experience). Anyone in Miami or preferably Ft. Lauderdale that knows a GOOD traffic lawyer that could help me out wth 2 major tickets, any elp is appreciated.

The closest track is near Eau Claire, WI ... so I guess that is it ... you guys aren't talking about illegal street racing are you ???

I couldn't buy a race on the streets up here ... we got the ricers with nothing but body kits ... and they know not to mess with me ... every once in a while i'll get a soccer mom in a minivan that is pissed at her kids for making her late and she'll wanna go ...

Anywhere around the D.C. metropolitan area...yeah right!!
This area is so congested. There are spots around the city that have so much traffic, you could be walking and beat the Vette next to you to the stoplight.
The Dulles toll rd is a good stretch of highway but usually packed with state troopers.

On Long Island there used to be plenty of "illegal" racing at Deer Park Ave in Suffolk County. A huge strech of road going north and south. Plenty of lights, but it is loooooong with alot of access to major Highways. But now its all for naught now, cuz its usually swarming with cops.

Now the place for the ricers to go is behind a department store and bullshit.

But there is still that big place to the west. New York City i think.

EXACTLY....Night time, 295 coming from VA is an ANIMAL. All the way through DC to MD to Kenilworth Ave Exit to Baltimore City. That road is ridicolous...just last night a guy in a GS400, New Maxima and I were flying

Next we have North Capital.....around 10pm (saw a viper the other day) then Riggs Road, 495 near the college park area, rt1 beltsville to laurel, the dangerous Rock Creek Parkway (love the twisties), 395 (watch out for cops) and alot of other roads. Practically everywhere in B-more City.

I've only been to Houston a handful of times. But everytime I hit Westheimer, there are about 1.2 billion cops around. I guess I just wasn't in the right area.

Dallas is Decent for highway racing (75 Central Expressway). Its not called expressway for nothin'!

How many of you have a site dedicated to street racing in your city?
