STREET RACING impromptu_________________________
RULES OF ENGAGEMENT by some group. Street races are a self-organizingbunch. People go and know what to do.Sure there are organized races between individuals or teams with bets involved, from a low of Php500 to Php10,000 or more.But for those who go to the races to test their machines, wannabee street racers must have a basic knowledge of what the procedures are. Racing in popular areas such as Libis is different from randomly picking or getting picked on when your driving.
TO CHALLENGE Most informal street races usually start when when you intentionally pick on somebody and see if he bites or the other way around. It is akin to a secret underground language that street racers instinctively know when they are being challenged. All it needs is a simple gesture, sometimes to subtle that most people don't even notice.
SAFETY Curiously enough, everyone who races has the utmost emphasis on safety, with drivers wearing seatbelts all the time and sometimes even four-point harnesses ( exemples: SPARCO, RECARO, COBRA, BRIDE etc..) Spectators with parked cars exit through the passenger side door and stay on the sidewalk. Cars who wished to leave are given a chance and the race is put on hold until the stretch is clear, Under no circumstance do people cross the street.
