Center Point sells gathering: bars, neutral booths, service corridors, event rooms, feeds, buyers, book, music, and enough bodies to hide a private conversation inside a public night. The Tooth and Gear is on the ground floor of the High Top Towers; every Raid Race team deals there, which is why it cannot sit on any one team's turf. Neutrality turned out to be a property of the address. Familiarity is the danger here. The room that lets you be seen is the room that learns your habits.
Field record
Where people go to be seen by somebody they haven't chosen yet. The district sells gathering: bars, neutral booths, service corridors, event rooms, feeds, buyers, book, music, and enough bodies to hide a private conversation inside a public night.
Place
Districts and sites
High Top Towers
place · site
Hotel and event towers in Center Point; the Tooth and Gear on the ground floor, Mo Money Jaguario's office above. Where the sport's social scene actually happens on race weekends.
The Tooth and Gear
place · site · as of 2060
Lost Angeles nightclub and heist-circuit social hub. Neutral ground by tradition. The place where crews meet, deals get made, and information gets sold under cover of noise.
Who is here
People
Frequency
person · character
A voice through a rented speaker, a courier kid reciting one sentence from memory, a dead drop that answers a question you asked at a different dead drop. Nobody has met Frequency in a form that settles anything.
Mo Money Jaguario
person · character
Moved the Tooth and Gear uphill a decade ago; his High Top office is the residue.
Razborki
person · character
Jockey and DJ; the flicker-paint murals on the Tooth and Gear's walls and the booth.
Organizations
Raid Race
organization · network
The sport: crews run raids across the city and sprint packages to the Low Coast launch points. Jockeys, jumpers, spotters, mechanics, stealers. The Ring Road Enduro, the Tunnel Run, the Extraction Sprint. Eight teams deal at the Tooth and Gear.
Team Jaguario
organization · crew
The team that holds Barricadia in the streets while the NAF holds it on paper. Mo Money's High Top office is the residue of the club's move uphill; Bonzer Kabesh recruits.
