Haven't been down there in ages but used to see alot of after hour grudge match street racing with cars down there years ago, those guys got pretty hostile at times with all the shit talking about each other! Then it seemed like the crotch rockets scene  kinda took over. Again though its been years since i been down there now like a decade.

Wasn't that red white bike Josh's old bike? I swear I just saw it on Craig's list.

Looks like your black bike next to it?

No cops show up at those races?

That's what I'm wondering. It's weird one time I randomly ran into something similar like that with all banshees on a street when I was riding off road. I didn't stay long enough to find out if any cops came but when me and my buddy stopped back at out trucks in the trails we still heard them racing

Cops used to never show up and if they did they just watched for a few and left. But over the years there's been many bad accidents and a death or 2 i beleive  now occasionally they will shut it down from what im told. i havnt been in like 10 years myself and all the big boys would show up at like 1-2am to have grudge matches placing bets, even racing title for title. ahh the good ole days!

^ makes a difference. I've heard many horror stories from cops. Current and ex cops. All tell ya what areas they won't go in to with out several other reinforcements. Hell, Oakland county cop in my neighborhood said a car load of young teenagers pulled out one of those AR assault pistols out for a routine stop. He said have a nice day and got back in his car.

No offence, but possibly growing up there may have desensitized you. I mean its one thing if your trying to sugar coat it cause you "grew up there" but you cant really believe its "not that bad"? I've lived in Michigan my whole life and I'm ashamed of Detroit, its a wasteland. I live 30 miles from Detroit and its another world compared to here. I am constantly defending Michigan because of Detroit as its all any one ever hears about. there's 100's of sites of Detroit "ruin porn". Once a great city with amazing architecture and history, now a cesspool of vagrants, abandoned buildings and one of the highest crime rates in the country. I worked in Detroit for one summer daily i was solicited prostitution, drugs and begged for money, And i mean DAILY. Several attempts at robbing me and the only reason I wasn't robbed was 2 of my workers were off duty police officers who had to pull their weapons. Had all my tools and equipment stolen with 20 people with in 30 feet and no one saw anything. I could go on and on about how bad detroit is.

 

Police wont even go into some areas period with out lots of backup. Hell a couple months ago they shut down a whole apartment building, arrested over 35 people and had 125 officers there.

 

It has a 50% illiteracy rate and a 75% drop out rate, that's insane! Over 20,000 homeless.

 

Of coarse this is the surrounding areas not right downtown, which is full of thriving businesses, restaurants, theaters and stadiums. Just don't wander too far or you'll most likely be mugged and or assaulted.
