ARRESTED FOR DOING 210MPH - IN A VIDEO
Enzo driver is busted for recording his speed run on camera
An exotic sports car dealer from Canada has been arrested after police watched a video that showed him driving three times over the legal limit – including one shot of his Ferrari Enzo displaying 339kph (210mph).
Zahir Rana, the owner of ZR Auto, is featured in the video on YouTube titled ZR Speed Run Challenge, doing high speed runs with his friends.
A Lamborghini Gallardo, a Ferrari 360 and F430 are
all featured with shots of the cars’ speedometers at over 300kph (186mph). Three of Rana’s friends who participated in the video have also been arrested.In the seven-minute video Rana says: “When I was doing the run… I just wanted to go faster and faster. And I know I could have done 350, but I ran out of road."
Rana claims the video was faked and says the
video is part of viral marketing and isn’t factual.
