Actually its worse then that. They stole 150 blow of valves. There are ricers already in withdrawal, infact we saw some this morning sitting in the gutter with the shakes making pssshhhhhttt sounds in an attempt to calm their nerves.

that being said.... the big one looks a bit like vin diesel. Id start there and try and infiltrate his crew.

Hope all goes well in recovering all stolen goods and they sneaky scum get what they deserve

Hmm, intercepted audio from just before the robbery shows Jonny may have stolen the parts to fund his new racewars car.

I dont get it with those photos, it looks like they are photos from when the store was open.
I'm guessing for them to have a $5000 reward, they mustve taken quite a bit of stuff, which Im guessing wouldnt have been done while the shop was open.

I guess it depends on where you live as to whether the guys look dodgy or not, when you live in one of the arseholes of melbourne, they look pretty normal...lol

An interesting fact is, if they are identified as a result of someone on the internet knowing who they are, the information is useless to the police. Excemptions against particular ats need to be sought before images of unknown offenders can be published. This even applies to the Crimestoppers pages in the paper. So, someone goes "that's Mr X & Mr Y from 123 ABC St" and then the police can't do anything about it because the information was not obtained alwfully.

I know there are people who will want to argue this point becuase its "not right" but its true.
