It's amazing how quickly a story like this spreads, it's such a breath of fresh air. Now that's it's top ten on Digg, it's causing a traffic headache for beyond.ca, apparently.

Here's the thread from the original photographer:

This will be a photochopper's field day! Here's the latest from beyond.ca:


It's kinda cool how members form other car forums (supraforums, nsxprime, supercars, caraudio, taurusclub, bimmerforums, supramania), catch the thread and are linking in to the Calgary site to say hi. Car enthusiasts unite!

Man that driver is going to become the whipping boy for every car enthusiast who's ever been screwed over in a hit-and-run.

yeah, i always take my mini digi with me wherever i go. not for these instances, but you dont know WHAT kinda crazy ish is gonna happen to you while you're out. its especially lucrative when wandering the streets of downtown San Francisco at any hour of the day

the guys on the Beyond forum are having a FIELD day with this kid. one of his friends got on there to defend him, and ended up ratting out his Nexopia page (one of them myspace-like sites). His tag on there is tequila.101. We found a couple more of his pix to play around with:

This one's my doing:





And this one i wish i had done:

For those who checked this story out in the beginning the first post over at Beyond has been edited to include some info. Specifically it gives credit the appropriate forum user, has a place to give donations for a particular charity near and dear to the protagonist's heart, and links to newspaper articles documenting the story.

This guy's gonna need plastic surgery and/or a home in Alaska if he ever wants to live this down. I'm loving it. Hit and run drivers are worse than crotch-rot.
