Once again, Milan Dragway turns out some of the hottest on-track action of the season. To go along with it, an event record of USACI car show and SLP competitors proved Detroit is one of the fastest growing underground car cultures on the series. As one of the founding locations in the series 3-year history, Milan Dragway has been growing into more than a racetrack. It is only transformed into a car culture haven when the Kumho Street Warriorz roll into town, but the scene of street racers turning to the track is growing unmistakably. “I have been waiting for Street Warriorz to roll back into town for way too long now,” local car show enthusiast, William Sharp said. “It’s only once a year I make it out here to see the hottest cars in the North-East and it’s one hell of a party to go along with it. The Kumho Street Warriorz series is the most hardcore street racing series in the nation. The parties are based around fans as participants in the event as opposed to spectators. Non-elimination grudge racing gives the opportunity for anyone in the venue to street race their street-legal cars without tickets or cops.

United States Auto Sound Competition has been involved with the series from its inception in 2005 and is the draw for the show car scene, involving some of the most respected clubs in the country and involves local organizations in up-to 29 category shows with trophies for the top three in each. The Outlaw SPL portion of the show is one of the most explosive new creations in the show circuit. This car stereo competition is the basis of all bragging rights in car audio and proves the hardcore reputation as the organization that’s “breaking glass and taking names.”

The party will take over 18 cities in the 2007 season including non-traditional venues such as Burke Lakefront Airport during the Grand Prix of Cleveland and pit road at Atlanta Motor Speedway. With live DJ’s, sponsor midway, burnout contests, and stage shows including the Kumho Barely Legal Bikini Contest all added into the mix, the underground of car culture has finally been given a venue for hardcore competition.
