@gordocarbo You're right-the Bay Area has been known for this style of driving since the late '80s and early '90s. The Bay definitely put this kind of driving on the map with videos like HOOD 2 HOOD and many others. We used to hit the streets after every club night, whether it was Fridays, Saturdays, or even during the week. But it all started on the weekends, sliding on fools after the clubs, trying to impress the ladies. I'm no youngster by any means, but those were the days, lol.
