2 years ago when i used to live there, everyone would meet at Dunkin Dougnuts right out side of Carrier Circle, (dont remeber the road name, pretty sure its Thompson Rd.) Try there,! OH PS, dont ever ever ever ever race, or drive even remotely over the speed limit on Erie Blvd, on a Friday or Sat night… COPS will nail your ass to the wall, I know I happened to me and another car ---

yeah i remeber when it got really bad on the blvd. they used to bring in trucks of water and dump them in the itersections so you couldn’t launch from the line… no traction, i think this proved to be an all around bad and unsafe idea! ---

Thanks. Kind of what I figured, but this area of NY is so different than the parts of the state I’m used to. ---

My finance live near the corner of Thomson road and Erie Blvd. I hear people racing all night on Friday and Saturday nights. People still do race on Erie, its just not as much as a couple of years back. There is a lot of patrol cars on Erie though. I usually go grocery shopping on Saturday nights and I’ll see 2-3 patrol car within a mile or two of each other. I always make sure to take my four door accord when I am driving around there at night to avoid attention from cops and ricers.
