Looking for: Pictures of an Indy / F1 car pulled over!!!!

A long time ago, someone posted a link to a site where a guy was getting pulled over in either an F1 or an Indy car. I think it was a green one with Benellos stickers. It was later on the news and it turned out to be real. The guy had actually bought the thing and got busted speeding on the road. Does anyone have these pics, a link to them, or can they e-mail them to me please ([email protected]). Thanks for any help. I've seen one, but there was about 10 of them altogether.

F1 cars have something like half an inch of road clearance, if that. They also have nearly 0 suspension travel. How on earth would you drive one of those on a public road?

fuck stopping... shit i'd be gone like a set of chrome rims at a snoop dogg concert!

some F1's and Indy cars race on street cources, blocked off roads to make a circle track, i think those tracks are a lot better then an oval track! that way you arent always turning the same way and not getting dizzy, plus it takes more skill to drive a road track then an oval track.

That is a 1986 Benetton BMW, don't recognise the driver or helmet. Obviously a promo/setup, absolutely no way is it "real". F1 cars are extremely adjustable, they could run just about anywhere. All the team would need to do is design, build and fit the necessary parts.
