Street Racing Coverage
THere is going to be a segment on the channel 9 news tonight about the big street racing bust in St. Paul this past summer. It will be on the 9 oclock news. They said that there were 400 cars and it was the biggest street racing bust in MN history. From what I remember, several people on here were caught. May be worth watching...

I don't know if we will have a DVD recorder anytime soon, and that about the only way I can save it, otherwise it will be on the DVR hard drive.

I was there, but all the video recording was done away from where I was...hehe. I'm waiting to see that on the news later tonight also. I was standing about 30ft from the warehouse when they came out. I'm so glad I wasnt thinking about racing that night. Someone on here was racing and got caught, I forgot who it was.

I was supposed to go there, But I was talked into going home by my girlfriend at the time for some reason. Got Lucky I guess?
Someone should record it so I can save it on my computer and view it occasionally like all the other BREAKING NEWS: FAST AND FURIOUS clips I have |

Anyone else watch? Interesting I guess, saw 2 DSMs. I'm not sure if they really needed that many cops...but whatever I guess.

I saw two members from Style on there for very brief moments flagging races. Me and Joe Geng. Couldn't pick out anyone else.

400 cars, and less than 50 total combined tickets and cars towed. Pathetic.

How about the young kid in the car at the end "this was orchastrated."
I stilll play around on the highways from time to time, but going to one place and staying for hours on end is just asking for trouble.
Oh well, I guess I'll just take it to the track instead from now on. Besides, I like playing on dirt more than I do on the street.
Wasn't really anything special of a report. If you missed it, you didn't miss much.

Darn...I went through all that trouble and waiting and I wasnt even on there...lol. Just kidding...haha.
It's funny how people are racing again at the same spot. And they didnt even show the quick cars that raced...I saw a civic and cavalier...haha.
I feel like an idiot...when I was there talking to my friend and he was telling about how there might be a sting, but I didnt really think it was going to happen..haha.

If you feel like an idiot, I saw the undercover cop that was writing down all the license plates of the racers, and until the sting went down, I didn't put 2 and 2 together.

I was at the first Undercover Fox 9 coverage on Warner. I never figured out the lone guy on the Crotch Rocket filming was the reporter. Even after I saw him sitting in the lot by himself when the cops came.
Happens to the best of us.

I honestly don't feel too bad, b/c when I was there, the guys racing were complete tools and really not being safe at all.
I know a lot of people on here would have actually been worth watching, and probably would not have raced when cars were coming down the street the other direction.
Sorry if people here got in trouble, but the guys who I saw racing totally deserve anything they get.
