They are from Edmonton, Alberta. I know most of them from the group. Nothing to do with ZR Auto.

On the way to check out LSW show

If speeding makes you a douchebag that means everyone on the mainland is a douchebag. Because I don't see anyone going the speed limit unless they are stuck in traffic.

So everyone in the mainland swerves and races in rush hour traffic? News to me.

So being caught for excessive speed means you are serving in in out of traffic. If they were swerving in and out of traffic why were they caught all together.


rac·ing
/ˈrāsiNG/
Noun
Any sport that involves competing in races.

When you get enough witnesses saying the same thing, it's not just "hearsay" anymore.

They could be pulled over for ANYTHING. We are not the cops we don't know it could be the cops pulling them over for no front plate or loud exhausts or anything.

Like usual RS jumps on them before knowing ANYTHING about the event. This is how the media always can write about anything without and evidence and the general public will go yeah they street race.

They are from Alberta btw for the LSW

SFU?

Gotta be UBC. If they only got into SFU their parents would've considered them a failure and only bought them brand new BMW 5-series'.

Looking at some pics, they seem like middle-aged white men. But with your comment, I bet you thought they were U-25 rich kids.

Why does this kind of stuff keep happening?

With all the reports in the news in the last year or so... motorcycles ripping it up in packs on the Sea-to-Sky, etc... the next group does the same thing and they're surprised when they get pulled over?

Dumb fucks, that is all.

When I first heard "supercars" and "pulled over in vancouver" together, yeah I'll admit I did. After I heard they had Alberta plates tho...

Has anything actually happened in this story or is this all hearsay? There is no new reports in the news on anything. Some outlets have even come out and said it is still unknown why these cars were pulled over. Has anybody witnesses any of these cars being towed/impounded and subject to massive fines?

Quote:
The cars were stopped by Burnaby RCMP just before 4 p.m. on Highway 1 west of Gaglardi Way.

It’s not known why the five cars, including Porsches, Lamborghinis and Ferraris, were stopped by police.
Several high-end sports cars pulled over ahead of Vancouver?s Luxury Supercar Weekend - BC | Globalnews.ca


Good ol' RS detectives were quick to jump that these were 19-20 yr old SFU/UBC kids, obviously racing in rush hour, that they are "new money" youngsters. Once it was discovered that they were from Alberta and drive supercars, they automatically must be associated with "ZR Auto Douchebags"

You figure the car-community wouldn't be so quick to jump to conclusions, but I guess I was wrong. Some posters in here are just as bad as members of the public who generalized that all revscene members are street racers and the RS Summer Meet is just a meeting of street racers.

I think officially if 2+ vehicles are speeding together, they consider it "street racing"
