The video footage is setup right near that meet spot. The police message is pretty clear that they don't want these gatherings as it attracts wreckless behavior.
It doesn't help our city is right on the border to another province(Quebec), we get extra influx of cars over to find meets or drive around.
I get it since there is a lot of toxic people around big meets. Too much ego and "showing off". Our 86 group runs pretty strong on a regular basis. We tend to meet on our own, and recently we have found small spots with other clubs where we draw no attention.

I would gladly pay the local police a tidy sum to do this in my neighbourhood. I back onto a residential street that has become a total ricer heaven over the last year. I doubt that I can go an hour without some asshat going wot and then downshifting just to make as much noise as he can in a half block run. The saddest part is that of the dozen or so cars that seem to have shown up there is maybe one that actually has the balls to warrant the noise it makes.
It is only a matter of time before somebody get's killed because some dipshit with a fart cannon and pop tune wanted to make sure everybody heard him at 2 am.
