Default Criminal Scott Tucker's GT2 RS and Carrera GT going to auction

If you haven't seen the Dirty Money episode called "Payday" on Netflix you should. The dude has the dead eyes of a shark as he explains away his deeds.

Now he's in prison for 17 years and his 20011 GT2 RS, Carrera GT and other booty are going up at auction to help satisfy a $1.3 billion judgment.

Interesting. Great taste in cars. Terrible business practices.

Thanks for heads up. Didn't realize there was a Netflix special.

There was a ton of discuss about Scott Tucker back in the day when he was winning scca races with full on professional rigs and crew compared to every one else's amateur efforts...

Feel really bad for all those he swindled.

Would love to grab that 2RS, but I don't see it selling at near the discount I'd need. Still might register and go check it out if I'm in town.

Future shock!

However, it's comforting to know that the 911 lives on, even 17,991 years into our future.

Love to see pictures. Does the model fold up into a briefcase after you land?

I strongly suggest watching the Netflix episode on him and his robbing poor people. The definition of narcissism. It's amazing the level of self-deception that he exhibits. I had to watch it twice. In my business, I've stopped people from spending money when it won't do them any good.

Yeah, that was the definition of despicable. Funding your hobby and lavish lifestyle by effing over people w/ no resources or power. Sure couldn't get away w/ that crap w/ rich people. Fascinating to see how many people excused his behavior because 'all he was doing is taking advantage of loop-hole(s) in the law'. Like it was a victim-less act. 17yrs wasn't enough IMO, and I'm glad to see those cars get better homes.

I still come across people who defend him.
