Anyone hear anything about this? Unfortunate to say, but it sounds like it may be a friend of a friend of mine, his name is Joe. He had a white s2000 like the one pictured, and he mentioned before that his dad worked for the force. He was a guy I did valet with some time ago..any info apretiated.

I remember the video where NOPSTNS is doin the "como esta bitches" thing and then he drove by with no exhaust, I have a feelin it was him. Thanks

Wow... that's bad. It looks like that was the only car involved, so he lost control and hit a tree or something?

I was right: http://www.phillyburbs.com/pb-dyn/ne...7-1463506.html

And a report: http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/story?se...cal&id=5861858

There was a guy at the Whitman meet about a month ago with a White S2K with white wheels. Him and another S2K followed me out on to the Blvd when I left. They kept trying to race me, but I wasn't having any of it. They both were driving like total D-bags. I wonder if it was him...

sleepersatty99 12-30-2007 05:30 PM

hey just to let you all know. he was on the forum. and he was a the meets at whitman tavern. i even said something to him about him not having no exhaust. in fact i just seen him and his friends who are also on the site

Edit: they also say that there might have been raceing involved.
my heat and prayers go out to his family

Cardriverx 12-30-2007 05:47 PM

What about the "1 person injured" claim in the NBC 10 story? I assume both people in the S2000 are dead, so where was the other person from?
