Boy racers stomping ground?

Devon

This was jaw-dropping to me tonight. At about 10:30pm last night there were about 50 (or possibly more) gathered where the "suped" shop is in the Kileen area. Hooded tops seemed to be mandatory.

It became apparent they were there to see drag racing and they weren't disappointed. I nearly got t-barred by some lunatic. They were using that strip of road as a racing strip, both sides, regardless of the potential dangers.

I high tailed it out of there as quick as I could.

Does anyone know if that's a regular occurance or was I just wrong place/wrong time?

The big kid in the denim scares me. He's 2 foot taller than the rest of them, and very dramatic.

Did you call the guards? Gathering in carparks is all well and good (have done so myself on many an occassion) but if they were purposely racing this creates a danger for ever other road user and is unacceptable (not to mention illegal in some way/shape/form).

This may be more suited to one of the motoring forums....

Fixed.

Kablamo!

it is indeed a regular occurence, which the cops are aware of.
some nights they come down and hunt everyone, other times they just don't bother.

Run them off the road.
