can Fairfax County police help stop the street racing problems after midnight on Saturdays, mostly on Georgetown Pike and Old Dominion Drive from McLean to Great Falls?

This has been going on for at least two years now.

Take for example, last night... around 1AM, there were 5 or 6 of them.
The cars included a black Dodge Ram pick-up truck with lots of graphics, a super-loud exhaust, fake xenon headlight bulbs, aftermarket LED tailights. Another one was a Mercedes C63 AMG, in custom neon-green paint job.(this color
definitely is not available from Mercedes) Again, this one also had some kind of aftermarket exhaust that was very loud, and if I had to guess, the catylytic converter was removed)

The customizations are not the problem...

These men and women(yes, one of the drivers as a woman in here late 20s) drove like maniacs. The double yellow lines in the middle apparently means abosolutely nothign to them. I would estimate their speed to be well in excess of 85mph. The posted speed limited on these two roads is 40mph. Most cars(myself included) drive about 50mph, no faster, because many parts of these roads have a lot of curves.

someimes there are also motorcycles involved... doing wheelies at 80mph.... which scared the heck out of me once, when I was coming home and these jerks passed me illegally over double-yellow lanes, WITH THEIR LIGHTS TURNED OFF!

My advice to you (the poster) would be to get over yourself. I think you more dislike loud or customized cars more than the racing on Georgetown pike is an issue for you.
