Street Racing

             As a car zips past you going around one hundred and fifty miles per hour when crossing the finish line you wonder, how is that possible? Then the familiar sound of cop cars fill the air and you dash for your car to get away from the scene. The people flow out of the crowd almost like a giant bumper car game.
