Dear VancouverFBody.com

My name is Dan and I am the director of www.vancouvertuner.com. The site will be launched in the coming weeks, and will be an online community for enthusiasts of all types of cars to come together and help promote the tuning scene in Vancouver. We want to take the focus off of illegal street racing and put it back where it belongs - on the cars.

We were recently given an opportunity by MTV Canada to put together a show on the tuning scene in Vancouver, and want to make the most of it to promote local clubs and enthusiasts in a positive light. We will be holding an informal meet in North Vancouver on October 19th to do the filming, weather permitting. The timeline will be from about 12-4, with everyone showing up to set up around 11am. There are two categories of cars we are looking for. First off we want cars with crazy audio and video systems. This includes custom installs, DVD players, anything loud that sounds good. Second, we are looking for heavily modified performance cars. We are looking for a good representation of the scene, so all cars are welcome to show up. There will of course be an emphasis on the extreme. People with hydraulics are especially welcome!

Now to the point - we want to extend an invitation for your club’s members to join in the filming of this show. I am asking that all interested participants RSVP as soon as possible so appropriate arrangements can be made, and so we can keep entrants together with their respective clubs. This is a great opportunity for local clubs to get FREE TELEVISION EXPOSURE. This event is 100% free and everyone is encouraged to attend, regardless of whether they are entering. For those interested, please email a photo and a brief description of car modifications to vancouvertuner@telus.net.

The show will tentatively be held at Centennial Theater in North Vancouver, and all entrants will be emailed as soon as it is confirmed (provided I have their email addresses). If you would prefer to organize entrants from your club yourselves, this would be much appreciated. Regardless, the sooner you can send me a list of who will be showing their cars, the easier you will make this for me.

Thank you for your help, and hopefully we will see many of you there! If you have any questions, please email me at the above mentioned address, and make sure you check out www.vancouvertuner.com in the coming weeks!


Thanks for your help,

Dan Duval

doubt it cant prove if they was to send a e-mail like that, simple one cop sees cars pulls in and calls for back up dosent sound like entrapment to me, the only thing is that if ur not moving i dont believe they can do anything but ya gott move at some point, its prolly a ligit letter, but just a thought i had

dude there is alot of illegal shit they can bust ya for on a car either mods to frames or other shit, mabe its diff on the mainland but the cops over here seem to have hardones for vehicles that are modded in different ways. , if a cop wants to be a dick about something he has the power of the pen

Yeah but either way that would be entrapment and they couldn't get away with it. I also don't see why all of a sudden they would want to get every modified vehicle together, get a V.I van out there and check every one over, just doesn't make any sense thats all.

I think what he was getting at is that they're not going to go through some elaborate scheme just to bust some ricers ::)

the tone is different, actually it's quieter at idle and part throttle than my bbk catted h and 2 chamber flows.

an o/r h pipe and catback is quiet, but beforethe flames come out, i drive 90% in richmond and they are murder on mods out here. WOT is another story all together. kinds like my magnaflows, but the magnaflows are 100x better.
