This was all over mainstream (TV) media in Canada when it happened.

M5 community was not super happy to be under media scrutiny.

There was a similar one in which the posting kid ended up killing himself and a bunch of friends also in an M5.

Here it is:

We don't want to be one of 'those' forums.

Second, this forum is about this mythical FT/R-86/S. Waiting in breathless anticipation for news of delays and hybridization. No one's going to be very happy if it gets tagged with a 'street-racing' reputation and becomes a heat-score before it's even out.

That's what's behind the negativity.

Like I said, if we keep it to legitimate (ie: track) 'kills' the entire community that is attached to the thread and posts doesn't potentially get stuck with the Fast and Furious label.

How do i report this in this situation, can i still go to the police even though this fucking idiot lives in the states.

I sure would like to get this fucking prick off the road ASAP
