Street Racing is an unsanctioned form of auto racing which occurs on a public roads. Racing in the streets is centuries old and started well before the automobile, but auto racing started the moment the second vehicle was created!

Modern street racing’s roots go back to Woodward Avenue, Michigan in the 1960s when the three main Detroit-based American car companies were producing high-powered performance cars. A private racing venue was not always available, and therefore the race would be held illegally on public roads.
