Default Drag Racing in Turkey

A little extreme but this is what happens when there is no focus on safety at a drag race:

Wow that is crazy, I can't believe they race like that, especially let people stand towards top end like that.

I was pretty shocked too, just had to post it up here. That's actually the way street racing was the way I remembered it. With the exception of the spectator cars pulling out into the street as people were racing down it.
