The Race
Three to four (usually) Japanese cars (that have been heavily modified) line up at the beginning of an empty street and are prepared to race each other to see which of them have the better car. Illegal street racing was all the hype in Los Angeles, California. I was visiting my cousin, Rajeewa, during the summer of 2000. Rajeewa had bought a metallic black, two door, hard top, 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse, around February of that year. Having only attended the weekly illegal street race sessions three to four times, Rajeewa had never taken part in the races as he believed his car was not fast enough and prudently did not want to lose any money. Although admission is free, to take part in a race, the bet was around two to three thousand dollars, a sum Rajeewa was rightfully not willing to lose
