"hey there,  
i’m a reporter for Global News - looking to interview someone who wants to  
show off their ride on tv. don’t worry, won’t show face/licence plate.  
i’m doing a story on the growing phenomenon of illegal street racing and  
need to find a racer to interview (don’t just want the cops point of view).  
would also like to show viewers how much people spend on souping up their  
vehicles and how hot the cars can be.

the story will air on our special Indy show this friday. need to shoot the  
interview TONIGHT.

if you or your friends are interested,  
give me a shout at:  
MINNA RHEE  
Reporter, Global News

yes for the love of god no incar video of a 240 with a sony xplode system running lights and racing minivans and such (bonus points if nawwws is mentioned)

if anything a well set up car and track day talk would be nice. but that wouldn’t make for much of a story

I bet she doesn’t even have a drivers’ licence. Right now she’s probably watching 2 fast 2 Furious to get some interview material.

Here’s an excerpt of the actual interview,

Mina: “So, do you ever hijack speeding transport trucks carrying dvd players?”

interviewee: “No, what are you on crack?”

Mina: “What was it like working with Vin Deisel?”

interviewee: “Lady, put down the pipe!”

Mina: “What’s it like living your life one quarter mile at a time?”

interviewee: “I’m going home now”
