Metro Atlanta Entrepreneurs Create Safe Haven For Street Racers With ‘Sunday Funday’ Events

Sunday Funday organizing street racing in Metro Atlanta.

Street racing is a consistent problem in metro Atlanta. Two metro Atlanta businessmen have created a solution that allows racing enthusiasts to enjoy the pastime and law enforcement to focus on other tasks.

On Dec. 15, drivers and spectators convened at a Clayton County warehouse for “Sunday Funday.” The event provides a designated space where participants can race at high speeds and perform off-road stunts without fear of legal consequences.

“We are trying to take the sliding cars off the streets and bring them to a safe haven,” event organizer “Str Polo” told WAGA News. Polo says his passion for racing led to legal woes and aims to prevent others from suffering the same fate.

“I was younger, I was in the streets doing all this stuff, but as I get my car, impounded, getting incarcerated. It just takes too much money,” Polo told the outlet.

The event drew thousands, and police officers and medical personnel attended to help maintain safety and order.
