car club

A car club is a group of (usually) young men who share a common interest in tricked-out automobilecars, trucks, SUVs, and/or minivans. Common car club adornments include:

Neon lighting on the underside of a car

Hydraulic suspension which can be used to make a car "bounce" or tilt in different directions

Lowriders

Custom detailing, most often flames painted on the hood and sides of the car, and racing stripes

Oversized or under-sized wheels and tires

Neon signs or painted lettering in the back window

Oddly colored, Xenon flash lampstroboscopic, or stencilled !headlights/tail-lights/parking -lights

Spoilers

Loud mufflers

Elaborate stereo systemsMore affluent car clubs will hold ''car shows'', while less organized clubs will hold rallyrallies, which often primarily involve cruising a major city street.Car club members will occasionally race each other, but such an event is rare, as they are usually more interested in enhancing their cars' beauty than in the thrill of speed and the vastly increased possibility of wrecking their life's work.Car clubs are thought to have begun with United StatesAmerican cholo lowrider culture, but have since spread to the more general youth culture. Equivalents in other countries, primarily Italy, Japan, and Korea, may have been influenced by lowriders or may have developed independently.

Als moderner Club wollen wir Sie gerne auch online mit allen Informationen rund um unsere Treffen und Rennen versorgen. Dessen Ziel es ist mit den kleinen Flitzern möglichst schnell und elegant auf den Rennstrecken zu fahren. Viel Spaß haben wir an den sogenannten Renntagen. Mit einer Mitgliederzahl von 55 sind wir der größte Club unter den Kleinen. Mit sportlichen Grüßen Klaus Beuke
