Big rally going through Vegas right now or at least last week. There was all sorts of trouble, guys in Bugatti's getting arrested in traffic going the speed limit. Also ~700 Vipers were there last weekend on the big VOA meet.

I saw a couple of Lamborghinis and a 911 pulling out of Advance Auto Parts last week. The 911 was closest to me, he had rally stickers all over the place. I'm assuming it was part of the same group, as they could very well have been heading for Vegas that night.

I went to Home Depot laugh

I have a hard time getting upset about this. I mean if I had that car I would probibly push it. Accidents happen. Even to the best drivers.

Arrested for doing the speed limit or reading comprehension on my side?

Rich dude wrecks rich car doing stupid E36 M3. That's so common now it's hardly news. You might as well read about the idiot that wrecked his Dodge.

I assume you're reading it correctly.  Matt Farah always says he wont do more 'Rallies' because of the Police arresting people for 'Driving while Stickered'  You can be doing the speed limit in a stickered up Supercar and you'll be pulled over faster than a beige Camry doing 20 over.

Blatantly stolon from Jalopnik comments (Hey, being caught on Jalopnik is less embarrassing than linking too Fox news!!)

It is on video and he was in traffic doing like 15mph. He is not the nicest person in the world and can be loud but I don't think it is going to end well for the cop.

In reply to wearymicrobe :

Watched the video. While the officer did not behave as an officer should, the dickhead in the Bugatti deserved it. Why argue with a cop? The best thing to do would have been to film the shiny happy person cop and comply, THEN turn the video in to grill his ass. 

Instead, they now both appear to be 1) a law enforcer with an attitude. 2) a rich boy with a short dick complex.

I know how that feels. I don't even need the stickers LMAO!

I've blown through radar traps on the highway going 20-over in the e30 rally car. Cops don't even take a second look. Maybe because they don't believe a 318i can actually go 80mph lol....

Or maybe they see a 33-year old stickered up car and just feel sorry for me that I can't afford a modern race car :)
