Not much street racing going on around here. Me and my buddy head out every weekend in the T/A trying to find some. We cruise from Lowell to Cal City to Valpo. No one really does it out around here. 141 was organized by a bunch of punks for awhile last year

Used to run 'em on S. Broadway in Merriville or the Cline Avenue extension on the Highland/Griffith border.

This was a long time ago.

I'd say go to Blue Top on Indianapolis Blvd (US 41) on a Saturday night and ask around.

that place is 75+ older only, and they go to bed early, so place is empty around 9. O'Hara's is where its at, but as for organized street racing, I am still sticking with theres nothing in this area...

I was sure times have changed. But turns out they really have. We used to hang at Blue Top until midnight-ish... if we didn't leave to race earlier. That was back when Ben Johnson was still alive. Don't know, maybe current management closes down earlier and maybe the clientle have aged. This one has.
