Chad - is this some of the same crowd we saw in the parking lot on the night of our meet? Where is the racing location relative to where we were?

No, this is a completely different area. 564 is in Norfolk near Little Creek - I wouldn't dare take a large group of us out there. I knew it was only a matter of time before that spot was raided.

Sorry... but thats what they get man. No offense,but if you're dumb enough to organize street races, then you're dumb enough to be caught. Just my $.02.
x 1000

Play with fire and you'll get burned... organized street racing ESP with groups that large, on a big public highway, more or less CONSISTENTLY doing the same thing over and over is just plain stupid

BoostLag, Boost609, & DC2Kid's cars were all taken and impounded. Its up to the judge whether they get them back or not. But yes, I am lucky my car broke in that sense. On the flip side though, I have been saying for the past few months that even when I do return - no more street racing. I'm taking my car to the tracks from this point forward, I've spent too much money & time in this car to have it taken.
Glad to hear it man... Keep it safe... its better that way anyways, you don't have the constant feeling of "oh shit oh shit am I gonna get caught?!?" No matter how fun it is, that feeling of uncertainty for something that serious just completely ruins the fun in anything. No matter how much of an adrenaline rush or whatever you have, that feeling will keep you from completely enjoying what you have and what you are doing.

Its funny because all these people on DragVa keep commenting saying they are going to go to the auction and purchase the cars. Strange part is, all the people on DragVa will lowball you to buy a freaking AEM Cold Air Intake - they think suddenly they can come up with $5g + to pick up a car.

i-564 is a nice straight highway. although i've never raced on it. it's quite tempting to open your car up on it.

Not only should they check for illegal stuff on the cars, but stolen merchandise as well.
