Must be from Africa or Central/South America... Only places I can think of that would advertise being part of a "Cartel".

^ You would think they would sell the cars off, to help pay for more donuts.


Don't take this the wrong way, I completely against street racing.

According to the summary on the YouTube video, those cars were built using stolen parts, which I believe would preclude the police from selling them.

Plus, crushing the cars sends a message that simply selling them wouldn't. And frankly, whoever would have bought them would be likely to also engage in street racing anyways.

I would have bought one to build this http://hondamarketplace.com/showthread.php?t=2699294

Frankly, I find the line between road rage and street racing confusing

This is actually a pretty cool Rx8 as it is a race car but I would not recommend doing that to your daily driver.
