More detail about the trip and subsequent trial



Thought the cell site data from the phone would have been a slam dunk for the prosecution but it looks like the speed camera network actually got him off.

PH thread shown around the 10 minute mark.
Maybe I’m missing something but the guy in the Vinwiki video drove an Audi S5 but the OP of this thread used a Porsche?

Thanks for posting that video, I was aware of this story but had never heard of the Nürburgring judge and Sergeant Slow.

Prosecution and the police must have been foaming at the mouth with all the Not Guilty verdicts. LMAO.

took the gamble to argue if I had done this then all those cameras on the A9 would have recorded me, but they didn't. So either I didn't do it or your speed cameras don't work. And it was an argument the prosecution didn't want to get in to.

How did he get away with the laser/radar jammers? People have got prison time just for those in the past.
I believe he explained that it was for the US event.

Probably something along the lines of legal to own but not legal to use in the UK? So if there's no evidence of usage, he's OK on that one.

Indeed, and the thread predates the latter!
