It still makes no sense to me that the same cops handing out VI's and tickets to stock Huracans happily provide a motorcade for the drive4change Performante which has an exhaust. How messed up is this.
Yup, I noticed and pointed out this hypocrisytoo when the police provided traffic control for the Hublot Rally as well.

Realistically what would be the cost to bring this matter to the BC Supreme court and is there any traffic lawyers willing to take a look at this?
The lawyer that the FB VI page is using or planning to use is a friend. She said the issue right now is that there's no funds to pursue this. She's willing to take it to court, but $$$$, no pro bono

Hmm... OK. For some reason, I thought COVID delays from the firm and the courts were the issue. Didn't know (and didn't think) funding was ever the problem...
That’s a pretty big statement cuz the organizers of the FB group who control the money that was donated to the cause are saying it’s COVID delayed when questioned about progress (or lack thereof).

COVID delays with the courts/firm, lack of evidence, lack of funds. That gofund me raised $6554. That gets you 26 hours LOL.

I think it's $250/hr. It'll defs take a long time.
Will update with ballpark figure if you're interested in funding it.

The Carerra GT is straight-piped and it's absolutely obnoxious. Legitimately deserves a VI honestly. Those two will do nothing but fan the flames and make it worse, they'll be a hindrance not a help.
I watched the latest DDE vid this morning. He didn't get a VI, instead the VPD cop gave his R34 GTR a 7 day impound. I'd rather have the box 2, thanks.
I asked in the video comments where it was, maybe looked like mary hill bypass but nowhere in Vancouver. Somebody replied hwy 17. So I'm not safe by staying out Vancouver?
Hwy 17 is an 80kmh zone entirely, even down to 50kmh in that one section. Maybe he was speeding like normal? I haven’t watched the video yet
Edit: just skimmed through it. Did I miss something or did the officer refuse to give almost any information, including the speed, hope he was caught, the officers name etc. Could be an edited video but clearly that officer had no intention of being cooperative.
I saw that R34 getting towed on my way home from work on Hwy 17. I have no doubt they were "excessively" speeding because the speed limit is a joke at 80km/h on that highway.
That being said the guy looks like a douche so whatever lol
What hasn't Killed me, has made me more tolerant of RS!

On the FB group, they posted they also got a box 2 VI on the CGT.

Where exactly on highway 17?
Im curious as to why VPD had radar set up on highway 17 when no portion of it runs through vancouver.

Between 104th Ave and the part where you drive under the Port Mann bridge heading West. I've never seen radar on the part where they got pulled over because there's not really a shoulder to do it on. I wonder if they just blew by the unmarked SUV without realizing it's a cop.
Edit: Watched the video and he said the cop was standing behind a sign... Thats a new one I've been driving that road 5 times a week for a couple years now and never seen that, guess I'll have to keep a look out there.
What's worse? VPD VIs and speed traps? Or Aircare inspections?
Come on, man? Was AirCare really that bad? My lightly modified VW always passed in flying colours, and I was under the impression that as long as you run a cat -- even with the high flow ones -- it is extremely unlikely for a car to fail when it has been properly maintained.
