They basically had a few cars, mainly Ford Escorts and Vauxhaul Novas with body kit and nice stereos.

AFAIK their evening entertainment was to hang around their cars playing loud music and ocasionally take it in turns to drive around the Bus station and town.

Have seen similar in other Cities and towns in the UK. Anyone know anymore about these sorts of people? or can I continue to diss them because I don't know any better ;-)

They might all have a great time, It just doesn't look like fun to me... :-)
Cuz that wak shiznick's a fight on my block. Yo, Props to the REAL bouroughs for keeping it real. Crooklyn's in the hizouse now. I ain't feelin Statin Island right now so you betta stop frontin' for I have to drive on out there and gi you some education bout the GHETTO son.
