3. We let go throttle as soon as shifted in second and realized "we are fucked"

4. Didn't make sense for someone to leave the scene or dip because that's not what family does.

5. Cop took it in humor and called in backup to take pictures of cars and everyone had a laugh.

6. Unsafe start from stop ticket $132 each

Ouchie.

Maybe look at your review mirrow first?

[NewM3driver]

That was really dumb, lol

everyone loves a run here and there but c'mon check the scene first

[GOLFFRR]

Found this pretty funny.

The Police SUV even had the spotlight attachment (and was marked on the side). C'mon guys, at least look in your rear view mirror before "spirited take offs" from stop lights. Great M3 colors though...

That happened to me years back when i had a E30 325i, had the rear screen up at the time shot off the lights like a scolded whippet, aventually when pc plod caught up he gave me a 3rd degree & let me off

Stuff happens, I am wondering what kind of trouble they got into. Hopefully not too much. I believe they're forum members since I remember seeing their custom plates "PUMPKIN" and "SMURF" somewhere here

i know the guy who owns both cars...great guy, he was mildly embarrassed by this to say the least.

They are on the Facebook F80 market place and said the police officer took it easy on them with a ticket for unsafe takeoff and was relatively cool with them. In some places, you can lose your license for "racing".

[paulo_f80m3]

I know who they are. They're all over instagram. "Scene points"

[punky8d]

lol.. Lucky ones if the cop indeed let them loose.

[RoarinForeign]

Cops always ruin a little fun : surprised how well the cruiser kept up though
