OMG ya i noticed that too, until i realized the 240KPH is actually on a highway clip... words spread and some friends that attend VTS told me what happened and im actually choked. Makes me think the news is all BS and the Agfhans and Iraq's are maybe the good people... fuck the news, cops, donuts and VI tickets.

bitches don't like me going over speed bumps at -10KPH -_-

no cars + massey tunnel+VTEC/vvtli+ tupac or some crazy trance = FUCK OFF move over.

^^Bullshit. We saw what you said in the interview. Don't try to tell us any different.


Seriously tho.

Freddy is some young kid who got taken advantage of because hes too stupid to learn that not everyone can be trusted. Its time to grow up and learn how the world works.

Heres some more advice for you: wipe front to back. Otherwise you'll end up giving your vag a yeast infection. Obviously you weren't born with any common sense so you need to pick up pro tips along the way.

I've gone through media school and I know what it takes to put a news story together. There are very few news stories that are 'fair and balanced' and obviously with a topic like street racing it is very easy to villify people. There is no defense to all of the info they had for this story. The Facebook posts, the ginger idiot in the S2000, and your own stupid words was the icing on the cake. Seriously, pack a larger bowl next time they call. Wearing sunglasses won't hide how baked you are. How could have you not seen this coming?

One of the things the car enthusiast community has to realize is that they have to cut their losses and take small victories where they can. Enough kids have wasted enough of their parents money putting cold air intakes and stickers on mom's old Accord and spilled enough blood to give the scene a bad reputation. Events like the ones Revscene hold, with police presence and a positive message, are a good start. But the public has already made up it's mind. Thats a sad reality we all have to face. People are going to judge you if you have an HKS sticker on your front fender, waiting and wondering when you are going to mat the gas pedal and run down some children. Behave yourself in public. Its your duty to avoid acting up lest you receive tickets and VIs for stupid reasons thanks to people like Freddy here.



Back in the 60s the American Motorcycle Association, condemning outlaw biker gangs, stated that 99% of people riding a motorcycle were decent, law abiding citizens and that only 1% of riders were trash. Biker gangs then embraced the 1% patch as a badge of honour for their mis-deeds being recognized. Freddy, you and VancouverTS are part of the 1% as it applies to the import car scene.

"Clubs" like VancouverTS should be condemned. You're not Paul Walker, Freddy. You're too ugly to be Vin Diesel (and thats saying alot) and I hope the thrill of seeing yourself on the news was worth the damage it did to everyone who enjoys the import car community.



Your name is Freddy Fonseca, not Freddy Forza. You're not a real racer. Don't pretend to be one.

blkgsr 12-09-2008 12:14 PM

some of the posts in this thread just make me shake my head...


1) this freddy guy is an idiot...straight up, i have no simpathy for you...you started a street racing club and went on tv to brag about it....think about it
2) anyone that attends these meets and participates....you're all idiots too
3) how ever cool and smart you think are you blocking off public roads to street race.....you're an idiot


i see far too many little boys running around in cars their parents have paid for and they barely know how to drive to begin with

$40K+ cars in the hands of children....such a waste

Didn't your FB group have specific events listed that said "we'll go racing after" or something like that?

PWNT LOL :haha:

yvrnycracer 12-09-2008 01:29 PM

ummm... am I the ONLY one who has seen Vancouver TS videos on youtube? All street racing... especially video of a certain black car with red angel eyes?!

Come on... when one of the members of our forum through up a VTS event a few members dug into it and we all saw what happens at these "meets" on "the strip"...

give me a break... Also when the media starts asking you pointed questions... never give them fuel for the fire... haven't you seen Casino?

did you watch the whole thing...

boxing in a car...

driving on both sides of the road... etc etc... only the end is track footage...

even if you google Vancouver TS... you first come up with many references to tranny's lol...

And then on the second page an image from a youtube video... two cars lining up... video has been deleted... of course this couldn't be street racing... :P

Nothing is set in stone yet, ie things could be worse for next year.

When there is more info, I or Rich Sanor will post it on the appropriate forums.

As it stands, looks like there is only going to be 6 weekends where we are allowed to run on BCDC, and these dates will be shared by VCMC, UBCSCC, BCMA, and Porsche Club.

Since the topic is somewhat related to the cause of street racing, why are the auto-x events in danger?

Pitt Meadows municipal politics. Long story short:

Noise complaints. About AutoX. When the skidpad is on airport land. The wind must be blowing in waaay from the east, cuz something sure stinks.

And some retarded kid and his street racing in front of the Mayor's house email.

The media is in the business of telling & selling people what they want to hear, nothing more.

Driving fast = Street racing.

Street racers = Specific underground crowd of young people.

Tasers = will kill you. (Would you rather be incapacitated by a taser, or incapacitated by a steel baton... or a hollow point bullet or five?)

Media = biased, and unreliable. Opinions and facts should never be based on what they say alone..
