Street Racing in Texas?

My son lives in North Austin a little west of Mopac. The last time my wife and I were down there in the middle of the night you could hear the turbo cars screaming around the area.
Shes down there now and told me this morning that it sounded wild last night. On a map you can see how they could be running laps on the expressways the area he us living in. Curious if any of you Texas guys could shed some light on this.

I wouldn’t call controlled doughnuts reckless driving.
What exactly is controlled about these street takeovers? I've seen A LOT of videos of cars whipping around violently and ploughing into one/multiple people and throwing the people several meters. Here in Australia, that kind of behaviour is met with a swift and hard response from the police and has real consequences. Funny part is that the ones encouraging this type of recklessness are the first to complain when police come down hard on car enthusiasts... go figure :)

Was saying drinking and driving is a much bigger problem and it’s our age group not kids

Austin has virtually no police department anymore due to liberals defund. Austin is not the peaceful place it used to be. My sister lives there.
No police and bidon wants are guns
That is what the first and second amendments are about. First freedom of speech and second to protect the first and we the people from the government. I will never be able to afford an EV and don't want one. Grouchy old guy I guess.

Bidon has his nose up Justin Trudeaus’ *** and you know they just banned guns
This happened recently near B'ham. It was in a somewhat remote place but these people were a bit too close.
Idiots! It's everywhere.
