Stritreysera again nowhere to race

At the site selected for the race track in Tushino began building a new stadium. In connection with this street racers came to the town hall with a request to allocate a new platform for high-speed races. In the spring the roads there are two misfortunes - vacationers and street racers. The first rushed to elevate their country hacienda, and the second yearned for the winter, the smell of burnt rubber. And if on weekdays, the city somehow able to live peacefully, then the weekend vacationers leave the city, nerviruya drivers on country roads. And closer to the night on the road spilling street racers, inspire fear in the surrounding din silencers. Street racing takes place at the following routine: Participants and spectators gather somewhere in the parking lot and at a certain hour of a large column go to the harvested before the course. Cars go slowly, so nobody got lost, and the whole cavalcade, waving flags, club, drags himself to his goal. Reaching the road, the organizers distributed machines spectators parking zone and build up the participants in the queue. Not to interfere with traffic, the route is blocked, so the venue for the races tend to choose a deserted stretch of road outside the city or industrial park. Collection of spectators, columns of conduct and organization of the order takes longer than the races themselves. Stritreyserskih clubs are now very much but not all of them are able to ensure the safety of guests. Irresponsible attitude towards the race ends sometimes sad - all the dispersed finery DPS (money for the entry of no return), viewers get drunk and climb under the wheels of the participants, racers ram the audience, and then themselves depart from the road into a ditch. Police disperses these gatherings, as such activities threaten the health and lives of citizens. But there is another side to the coin. A lot of people who are seriously involved in tuning and want to achieve good results in drag racing. There are owners of expensive sports cars, who want to try their cars in, but not exchanged for pokatushki with teenagers at nine. And they have clubs in which a serious approach to security and circuses. They are the guardians of law and with it made for a certain amount of money the police do not notice the street racing on their site. Sometimes it receives an order from above - to disperse the illegal competition. But for lack of alternatives to street racers continued their wild night activities. Once riders in 2006 in protest blocked the Moscow Ring Road, the Third and the Garden Ring, and even the road in front of the Office of the traffic police, the Moscow government decided to accommodate the thirsty adrenaline of youth. For high-speed races was isolated road near the Sokolniki area where anyone could drive on under the supervision of the police. But the first attempt turned out lumpy - the race came to more than 3000 people, and such an influx of participants and spectators expected. Eventually, in 2007 stritreysera allocated a separate track in Tushino, where for three seasons, were held night races under the auspices of the Russian Automobile Federation. Gradually the races at the track in Tushino turned into competition for the elite. Tuning vases and finalized foreign cars there was nothing to do, not to mention the drain versions of sports cars - compete with the formed a narrow circle of participants could only wealthy people. In the 2009 season on a dedicated route was held just three races and the final Grand Prix of drag racing in general was held at the Dmitrov proving ground, where they would not let ordinary people. While afloat keeps drifting - in 2007, was created "Formula Drift", which for three seasons suit competition in specially designated areas. This year starts an alternative championship drift, which will also be held throughout Russia. Amateur competitions are held in a circular racing racetrack Myachkovo and Winter Rally sprints are areas, for example, in Mytishchi. Street racers are divided into two camps - one would not agree to voluntarily imprison himself in a cage, they attract only illegal gatherings. Others are ready to cooperate with the government agreeing to the proposed terms of organization and regulations. It was they who created the Youth Union of Motorists (UIA) and come for talks with the Moscow government. At a meeting were representatives stritreyserskih clubs and the Federation of Automobile Sports of Moscow (FASM). Discussed such issues as the allocation of a special route for high-speed races and sites for collection of motorists. At the moment, for these purposes might and main roads are used around the observation deck near the main building of Moscow State University. At an official meeting of street racers and the city administration decided to work together to solve the problem of illegal competitions. Deputy chief of police in Moscow, Vyacheslav Kozlov proposed to use the old site DOSAAF for training to improve driving skills and kontravariynoy training. Discussed and far-reaching plans to revive the center of technical creativity of youth. President of Federation of Automobile Sports of Moscow Sergey Vorobiev made a proposal to organize regional sites for amateur competition, to the energetic youth to realize their potential. In order to strengthen cooperation, street racers decided to play the role timurovtsi: from April 15 to May 15, street racers are free to bring up the veterans at various citywide activities within the campaign "was picked up veteran." Honorary retirees who want to get to the Victory Day celebration with the breeze, is enough to contact the district council of veterans, and at the appointed time, his house will be waiting for one of 400 volunteers. And it may be a domestic car with a pronounced tuning and luxury Ferrari, of the columns which will be distributed to wartime songs. Participants will share their decals - stickers with the symbols of WWII and the inscription "was picked up veteran." Many of the issues discussed in the government building in Moscow, remained in limbo. Until now, it is unclear whether stritreysera allocate a separate track, and on what terms. With the start of construction of stadium "Spartak" in Tushino city loses not only drag racing, but also a platform for one of the largest exhibitions - Autoexotics. Summer is just around the corner, and the racing season is already open, so it is better to metropolitan government not to delay this issue. Text: Olga Zabelkina.
