Default 97 #149 found and some theif catching action

Located in East Tennessee, happened to be passing through Oak Ridge while I was there for an autocross.

He debadged it due to theft attempts. He tracks it as he was just at Road Atlanta. He is the original owner and is a member on H-T but doesn't browse often. I can't remember his name though for the life of me.

The funny thing is while we were talking about the attempted thefts, some people started yelling about a purse being stolen. I saw a green Civic being blocked by a truck so I hopped in my car and gave chase through the parking lot, then the streets of Oak Ridge. They tossed the purse and were arrested in the Taco Bell parking lot after me and Evian identified them and the car. I stopped with the purse until a cop arrived. Was only .1 second off an STi during the fun runs with a 33.8, but the event itself went bad, 3 DNF's and a best of 36.4.

Just thought it was cool to randomly meet with a 97 ITR (saw him from across parking lot and drove over there).

http://www.killboy.com for pics of the theifs and me in action. The guy in the front is the one who stole the purse after holding the door for an 80 year old lady then pushing her down.
