The Eat n Parks all over the Pgh , Homestead, Monroeville areas were Hotbeds,
Theee "Place to be" back in the day if you were looking for a race or to settle grudges.
(a lot of money changed hands ) Bragging rights were one thing but they raced for "the Crown" of King of the Streets.
Sunday nights seem dull today as I "rode with my Dad as a Kid" as he held or took the Crown many a times,....in any of dozens or so "Fast cars" he ran on the street and the tracks across the Tri-State area.....Very often the Heavy Hitters he beat regularly came back seeking, asking and paying good money for His Tune Ups.
The Missile Silos off of Rt 130 was a back drop to many 'serious' street races

.sometimes with bullets fired from the local police, high speed pursuits....crowds and too many cars to count were abundant
