    Yep that would be it. The top of the wheel is inside the body work, but since I am running a bit of camber the bottom sticks out past the body. Hence the defect.

    But one thing I did learn from the experience was be honest and polite to the officer and they will treat you the same way.

    Question though... when is the next meet of this caliber? It was amazing to see the turn out and quality of cars there.

      I was led to believe the top of the wheel was the only part that had to be inside the bodywork as that was the part that could be dangerous to others.........

      This is where it would be good to have a police contact haha.

                  yep, been there done that, bitterness stays. when people actually just go with the flow of things then **** turns out awesome & everyones usually happy!

                  never heard of dubs by the pub/pie have you? big vw show that cruises from boondall....

                  not meaning to offend, just being blunt.
                  Stay happy, not snappy! Douchebag.

                  I'll be there, I haven't been to a decent meet in a long time. I just don't know what I'll be in depending on if I sell my car or not.

                      I went to the last one and it was truly epic with regards to the number of cars. If it is the first week in Feb I won't be able to make it but I can recommend it for those that are sitting on the fence. Might bring the v8 next time just to throw a cat amongst the pidgeons!!
