43. This has been going on WAY before "Fast and Furious"

I know back in the '60s, one of my uncles (my mother's baby brother) owned a share of a NASCAR stock car.

As long as there have been cars, there have been "races". I posted a couple examples in this thread including here - https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1014&pid=2913468 and here - https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1014&pid=2913281

and the latter had this "classic" scene (from 1955, 45 years before "Fast and Furious" ) -

The difference nowadays is that the participants and spectators have "cell phones" to "broadcast" it. Many of them actually belong to car clubs including one of the biggest - the Vengeance Auto Club that does modding and detailing, etc - this is the GA one - https://vengeanceracing.net/



They have multiple "shops" around the country and have branded all sorts of things.

This is one of their instagram accounts - https://www.instagram.com/p/BiexqjAgHUQ/?hl=en
