[Valo666]

On Saturday night, there was a big car meet for one of the local car clubs (dont know which one, but i think son240sx.ca or GTcars.com), about 35 cars showed up at a parking garage in a Toronto mall (Yorkville).


At about 9:15pm, some of the people at the meet where driving along highway 7 in North York in a bunch of different cars. Befor they left, one of the people at the meet decided to start doing doughnuts in a 300zx which brought on police attention.

Because of the burnouts and doughnuts that this driver did, the police put their elite anti-street racing team was called in. Without them noticing, the police fallowed them and setup a roadblock. As they left a set of lights, a guy in a white skyline GTS-T left with some speed, but was only about 10km over the speed limit, as soon as he did, a black Chevy tahoe pulled up behind him and threw on the cherries. As soon as he did, the unmarked cars making the roadblock infront did the same, as well as the helicopter fallowing above. One of the guy from the Toronto Subaru club was around them in his pickup as it happened and snapped these pics.

These cops are almost like SWAT, like full SWAT gear, including sub-machine guns.

All in all, 3 skylines, the paseo, and the porche were all impounded and the drivers charged with street racing. But all in all, from the entire event, including the meet, 206 charges were laid.

Toronto is really starting to crack down on street racing. One of my co-workers was in a car that was pulled over by these guys on a highway here in Toronto. These officers came out with full SWAT gear on, submachine guns aimed at them and all.

As a warning to any one in Ontario who is wanting to set-up a meet, or is having a meet. Organzie ahead, make sure its ok to be on the property, dont be stupid (IE reving, burnouts, clutch drops, speeding, etc), and lookout for a black Chevy Tahoe on the way home.
