somewhere near an airport, or past toll booth's they do street racing. Since theres no cops on the highway's alot of people do. But there are a **** ton of cameras EVERYWHERE. Most of the street racing is high end exotic cars too and they mostly do drag racing i think? Never really asked my cousins while i was in korea
