On the starting line of the Nascar track at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. Yes that is a Cop behind me. We were getting ready for a photoshoot and I guess they wanted to make sure we weren't going to take a "Lap" around the track.

"BOUSOUZOKU"
Here are more pics of "Crazy" cars. Again, these cars could be associated with a form of Bousouzoku. Like I said earlier on a different page, this term is usually associated with a motorcycle gang (of some sorts). The best mental picture I can give you is: picture about 8 to 10 400cc motorcycles riding alongside each other, going 10 mph in a 50 mph zone, two to a bike, the passenger on the bike has a police type baton (stick) tapping the hoods of cars that get to close, even police cars. Established Bousouzoku gangs usually wear some type of uniforms. The common uniform I witnessed on Okinawa was an all white KKK type uniform but instead of the pointed hat they wore the "Kamekazi" headband. If your wondering what the police does when a line of Bousouzoku's block traffic as I described does, the answer is usually nothing. It's to dangerous to chase motorcyles. They usually hope a bike crashes and catch the driver or passenger and not release them till they give the names of all members. Why don't they just run a check on the plates? Two things: Either the plates are bent up to hide the numbers or the bikes are stolen. There is a high theft on 250 and 400cc motorcycles and 50cc scooters. Well, if there's no questions, enjoy the pics.
