It's nearly 10pm, young men wearing fluorescent green vest hit the road, stopping oncoming stream of cars.

in rain drops side windows down, looking on an excitement crowd standing on the roadside. Noise of classic 
American engines spreads out hypnotising everyone around. I have forgotten it's not the scene 
in American Graffiti, I'm in 2011 on a North Circular road in North London. (September 2011, London,UK)
