boy racers
Reckless young drivers
Boy racers are young men who drive modified cars aggressively, often gathering to show off vehicles with loud exhausts, lowered suspensions, and aftermarket parts.
The term is chiefly British and carries a dismissive tone, suggesting reckless driving and more interest in image than skill: The car park fills with boy racers every weekend.
