Here's a link to the thread- It really starts getting good on page 10: http://www.fuelslut.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=55841&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
The background story is that the guy's heavily modded Mustang Bullit is stolen from his garage when his home is broken into. People start seeing the thief driving the car around Orlando, at which point they give chase and call the cops. When the cops show up and the forum guys slow down to let them take over the guy repeatedly takes off and outruns the cops because the PD has a no-chase rule and the car is really fast. Here's a quote from the final encounter:

50_Dave@fuelslut said:We were at the corner of Kirkman and I-drive at that chevron/mobil gas station (had to get some fuel/h20/ice for curtis!)
We were heading back to our cars to drive around town at the posted speed limit when I saw a green bullet drive by and stop at the light at the corner we were at. I immediately yelled, "BULLET!"
I got in my car and chased after him some. Saw that he pulled into a parking lot where backstage is by and found him about to park the stolen car next to some latin bar/club. I blocked him in t-bone style and got out of the car to just talk to him (stall). Curtis pulled in behind him and blocked him, as did trevor with his white WRX Next to me. some more fuelslut people showed up.
The guy paniced, started pushing the stolen car into other cars, and basically slamming his way into cars to push them out of the way. One red z28 had some scuff marks, and the white wrx had some bad scuffs on the front bumper with the back bumper being dented in from being pushed into the Mercedes SUV.
Eddie tried to pull the guy out of the car but the guy dropped the clutch and fishtailed intot he curb and hit Trevor. He than pushed forward and nailed the Mercedes SUV along the side of the car. The guy took off and proceeded to run through the industrial area behind backstage. He (they...had a passenger) ditched the car when curtis found them walking. They jumped in a Silver Mercedes and took off.
We found the car. It had been abandoned. We got the cops there. We had a unit tailing the Mercedes as well, but apperantly they were told by the night commander to let him go ::
We proceeded to fill out incident reports next to the abanded bullet, when those thieves showed back up in the mercedes and took off again when they saw us there.
The cops tried to follow them, but they got into their cars too late.
That just about sums it up.
Crazy night.
