Unhappy Tragic Night - RIP AJ Racing S2000

Just found out that a friend's car was torched last night. So tragic.

Feel better buddy.


Before




After










Videos






Details of the Incident
  • Happened in Richmond, BC at 1am (Location: eSpot)
  • Guy wearing ski mask
  • Broke window and ripped soft top
  • Threw something inside car to ignite fire
  • Took a sledgehammer and repeatedly beat the car until someone yelled at him, and then he took off
  • Car has well over $15,000 in mods including Volk RE30s, Js Racing widebody kit, Bride seats, Js Racing front end, Js Racing Drag Wing, Js Racing hood, etc.

So sad...

Insurance Issue
Quote:
Unfortunately, there's a cap for aftermarket parts of $5,000 (plus an additional $1,000 for audio equipment). So the max you can get back is $6,000 + the value of the car. That's how our government-run auto insurance company works.

so what happen was, I was about to walk out of the arcades was gunna say bye to a few friends then the fire caught my eyes, thru the glass door I saw a s2k with a J's Spoiler, so at 1st I thought it was mooman's gf's car like many thought. i panic'ed abit (2sec)and went to look for moo man, wasn't there at his usual place(5secs) so I went out and took a peek at it, there was a masked guy yelling and cussing while smashing the Front Driver's side fender. I couldn't think what to do I stood there for like 10seconds then realized it was Sam's car. then thinking sam comes to espot? so I quickly yelled "HEY WHAT THE ****!" the guy looks up at me panics abit then ran down the driveway where the bubble tea place is, as i was going inside to look for sam, I hear tires screeching (so that guy left by car) I ran to the counter told the staff sam's car is on fire call 911! and looked for sam! I couldn't find him and there wasn't anything we could do so yea we watched it about 5mins then sam suddenly appeared out of no where. by then the owner of mazda3 (felix) wanted to move his car away fast! then "boom!" there was a small explosion! so we're like leave it! leave it! and we were all just standing there watching the s2k burning and burning until the firemen actually came to put it out... so yeah that was about it.... yeah I know some people might ask why I didn't go stop that guy, but if you compared both our sizes you can tell I'd die if i went up to him, and yes I'm a tiny lil asian kid, and he's a huge guy who can toy a sledge hammer!

yeah, conclusion was there wasn't anything we could of done.
but yeah RIP S2K.

I've always wondered what goes through a persons mind in order to do this to someone. Jealously or not, to go to the length of destroying others property is unexplainable and pathetic.

Sorry man.

so whoever did it has been watching things obviously to plan this out. Sucks big time...

did he "take off" in a car, or was this guy just on foot?

I don't know the details of that. To the best of my knowledge, they are still trying to track down eyewitnesses to confirm if he took off on foot or by car.

Notice the Mazda3 beside it was burned too (unintentionally).

Yeah, it's been an awful day.

There are a million better ways to settle a customer dispute. This is hardly one of those reasons, not to mention a criminal act.

Believe me, as soon as we get more eyewitness details, we'll be scouring the streets and the internet to find whoever is responsible. AJ-R Beatdown Crew is mobilized.

No, we hired Naomi Sayo for Driven To Perform Vancouver as the model for AJ Racing. She's based in Toronto ON.

Blitzgear + AJ Racing = *NWS*


Most likely a disgruntled customer or jealous individual.
