They closed most of the tracks and strips here, and now street racing and "sideshows" are a problem. Ooops!
i think that this can be boiled down to a few key points. 1. if your scene sucks or is dead, then it is up to you to make it better. 2. while the "internet age" certainly has pulled people in other directions, there are always those true hardcore dudes that will always live the life. they are still out there. in fact, the internet makes it easier to meet up with similar people that share your interests. you can meet people online in your area, and create a new cruise yourself. connect with other locals on the HAMB and there you go. 3. dont wait for others to make up event and attend it. make up your own events and make it happen!!
