Sunday Funday: Detroit’s Illegal Car Meets
Sunday Funday: Detroit’s Illegal Car Meets
The dynamic and often dangerous “Sideshow” culture, which started in the Bay Area, has given birth to an underground series of car rallies known as “Sunday Funday.” Since the tradition’s inception, it has become popular nationwide, including in cities like LA, New Orleans, and Kansas City. In this episode, VICE travels to Detroit to see how a city with a rich history in car-manufacturing is using the newly popular sideshow scene to help locals escape urban blight, re-establish themselves as pioneers of car culture, and revive the Motor City’s spirit.
After our documentary, the Detroit Police department has decided to work with the car community to find a solution together: https://www.wxyz.com/detroit-police-chief-working-with-donut-drifting-drivers-on-agreement-to-stop-blocking-freeways

Detroit stealing all the bay areas culture it’s soooo unoriginal
There is a sense of togetherness bring with it every culture religion and nationality to a car meet but these are not car meets these are illegal street take overs which need to die fast.
“Calms me” hmm heard the before…
lifestyle of the IGNORANT……their grandma’s house is foreclosing but they have money for tires to burn
BLM WE RUN THE STREETS!
1.0 gpa activities
If you bought a Toyota you’d probably get lifted out of poverty cause now you have a reliable ride to work that actually holds value
it only be srts at these meets
12:58 bro reversed straight into the jeep behind him he was scared af 😂
I’m in Texas and I don’t see people doing this in the middle of the day because we’re at work.
not sure why anyone runs from the police, they show up just for "show" they are completely worthless!
He said we started this shi no ya didn’t 😂😂😂😂
Do not be fooled, these are not car meets at all. These are called street take overs and are malicious in terms of destruction to private property. Car meets are much much calmer and more organized.

There needa be a bay2detroit 🚫🧢
I miss the racing in Detroit. Fun times
12:58 that dude just backed tf into a jeep lmao
I’m more of a mustang guy but this video made me kinda want a Dodge 😅
Wrong, Mercedes’ started the automobile not ford, They didn’t even invent the production line, they adopted it and made changes to it.
Cops don’t mind Sunday funday anymore
Sick of guns and violence.. pulls up secenes with people running from cops, holding rifles, cars crashing.. yea, no violence 👍😁
Can I come do donuts? It’s cool I’m white right
WHO EVER CHOSE THE MUSIC NEED TO GET FIRED
that’s a dumb ass crew name, and they’ve legit ruined the actual car scene around here
who shot this video?
He gave props 2 the BAY YEEEE .. LA 2 BAY
I got that same Ricky Bobby shirt
This is so gansta rebellious and dangerous
if you are tired of the negative BS, then take your crew and clean up some of these filthy empty lots, cut the grass, clean up the trash and plant some trees instead of holding up traffic, running over "not so innocent bystanders" and attracting car thieves
Miss this yo
Ohhhhh that’s kbandzzzz😂
*"you dun hit the vIcE!"*
My comment was pinned by vice but then I edited it and it went away 😩
he ain’t even lying if your hands ain’t shaking after doing some crazy 😂😂 then you ain’t doin it right
They get drivers from all over, Raise $$ and buy an open spot and slide there, then police will leave you alone. Just like how white people bought land and made it into drag strips. People would race on streets and then took it the strip where police can’t shut it down.
I wish europe has a "sunday FUNDAY" but they are all down because the next day they gotta work !!!!
Detroit has always had car clubs, since the 80s,
LOL it’s like a cow herd but cars.
8:44 “Alright the police is here,……. I ain’t running bro ” LMAO
Guy with the camero got some bunk ass wheels
Y’all did not start this 😂 give Oakland props 😂 1:05 smh
Kinda lame, real street racing is Wher it s at
0:06 let’s hope so! Remember, everybody wants to be like their family…. It won’t stop! How can you claim to LOVE yours… if it Ain’t true, it show!
shout-out to the bay , yadadayeee
Good to hear yall pay it forward to this bay are sideshow culture! Yall doing yo mf thing out in the D! Can’t wait to come slide wit yall for 2k23! Big moves happening!
I hate this selfish people
nice cars … but do ya have the skill to do it professionally??? what is 3/12 hours??? you mush like the Cat and mouse game….
I made up a fanfiction about street racing it’s set in a fictional city based on Detroit it’s called Born to Shift and there’s a character based on Han from Fast and Furious it will have Need For Speed and Midnight Club Vibes
12:59 did that suv just reversed into a car lol
for the love of GOD, trying to use the plight of Black men into your illegal activities is counter intuitive
I love Detroit!
