It's a fad within law enforcment. It creates the hysteria needed to convince the state/county that "street racing is a real problem in Georgia". It gets your department funding and new toys.

If you didn't know the details or anything about it and you were sitting at home watching the 10 o'clock news and a story about "dozens of local hopped up "tuner cars" participating an sacationed illgeal wrekless driving event through 3 counties with speeds topping 120 mph under the guise of charity" you might take issue w/ it, if not some politician out there could.

California, Flordia, etc. the media loves this stuff. How hard would it be for them to find everyhting they needed to make a good story for the 10 o'clock news right here on IA, including video footage?

They could put the unconcerned, hardened, outlaw spin on it real quick based on open postings about it and the support and praise (from just a few) about people running from the police, and an open attitude of whatever.

The people from the car dealership are going to be feeling the heat, and I'm sure they have allready been in touch with their legal department.

GSP is not simply going to shrug this off. They will be handed everything the county departments collected. They have a map, evidence of it being organized, they have NEMEROUS reports from citizens along a pretty long route of dangerous driving. They are going to be looking into this, and they are probably going to look here.

If I were a cop or a politician, which I'm not, this would be a cake walk to start a crusade against the evil scurge of street racing here in Georgia. Which would really just create laws that would give a legal excuse for LE hastle anyone driving a car with a nonstock apperance or sound.

I'm done, flame away...
