whats the deal with Flint

About 50 cops in every parking lot, you can't even sit around anymore. They've been blocking the strip, of course, but now they chase you out of the lots.

Maybe there's a new meeting place....It was DEAD Saturday night.

Wonder if all the media focus on streetracing has anything to do with it?

Naaaw

I just mean recently.

3 weeks ago, there was 2 hours of non-stop racing before the cops showed. And they weren't patrolling the parking lots.

Saturday they were towing kids out of McDonalds.

Probably just starting to crackdown. Had other things to deal with before they delt with the street racing sh*t. It is flint ya know.

There are still some other great spots..

You just got to ask around.

robvas · 06-04-2002, 09:48 AM

There's a guy with a black LS1 down there, that I always think is you...until he accelerates. His front tires stay on the ground and he doesn't have your exhaust, either

Flint is the armpit of this state! No offense, but there is no town that should have a greater police presence the Flint, MI. I spent 4 years there going to school and I hope to never have to go back.

91Bird305 · 06-04-2002, 12:42 PM

I agree. The mayor was corrupt and kicked out of the city, police and firefighters are being laid off because the city doesn't have any money. GM is moving out (which might be a good thing in the long run). Hell, the state will probably take over the city and start to run it if we can't. I hate flint and my only goal in life is to get very far from it. Its a sh*t hole.

Yeah, with all the layoffs and ****, you'd figure the cops would have better stuff to do.

Oh well, we'll have to call in a bomb threat or torch a building next weekend, that'll keep him busy

OneBad98Z · 06-05-2002, 02:45 AM

Im probably the Black Ls1 you see around.. I actually thought Saturday was pretty good, you just have to look around like Harold said, if there isnt anyone on St.Johns. look around people are still there. lots of nice cars.. Just gotta find em.

Later,
Greg

Maybe it is you. I'll be down there next week in a Silver WRX or the Laser, it's black, stock wheels, faded paint on the hood, roof, trunk. It's pretty loud and I've got gauges on the pillar. Give a shout if you see me. If you're the one thats always at the Sunoco it must be you.

Some people around Detroit learned the hard way not to post locations, cars, etc. Please edit your posts for your own good.

Private emails tend to ensure that only you guys are reading the message.
