What ever happened to Billy?

Anyone know what happened to this guy? Used to set up a lot of runs a couple years back. Had torontostreetracing.ca and Team Illuzion or something.

I know he ed over a lot of people with his whole expose on street racing. Just wondering if he ever turned up. I know I saw his car (the Celica Al-Trac with the rally style paint) up for sale like 8 or 9 months after the show aired.

Anyone know?

i don't remeber the site but it wasn't that it was something else, ya i think he is in jail or out on parol, not only was he and or his buddies charged with the beating but he was involved in some fraud from what i was told and was charged. but thats just what i was told from a good source

The "beating" was the baseball batt to the side of the head of ZoomBoy as he wa standing infrotn of timmies i believe at carrot commons in scarborough about 3 years ago where XDR used to hold there weekly meets....

many ppl were there....talk to IvsD (greg) ZoomBoy (Ryan) or JudgeZ24 (Uchi) if u want more specific details..same with SirChirpALot (Randy) as as far as i remember greg and randy helped Ryan up and made sure he got to the hospital ok, etc...

I know Steve thru XDR too...

Well, the guy who got beat down was ZoomBoy...i dont remember or know ALL the details but really it was a case of being at the wrong place at the wrong time...."Billy's Boy's" i guess found out who ZoomBoy was, and they supposedly saw him talking about Billy and his whole street racing video for i believe it was CTV? wel they saw ZoomBoy writing -talking posts on the forums, i believe it was still GTASR.com at the time....

So someone pointed out to billy boys who zoomboy was, and while he was talking on the phone facing the opposite direction they cracked him over the ear/head from behind so he was completely unsuspecting it.....

Please anyone with more knowledge feel free to correct me, add more details or comment....

BTW, what did Steve do exactly? i havent spoken to him in time.....he ratted on sum 1?? and he tryed closing TSR?? how the hell would he be able to do that? Doesn't he still run XDR? i thought he got a 99 stang or something last i heard..

xdr and steve and i guess gtamc got owned there,

maybe i should call erinwood since i know the general manager mark, maybe he would like to know how a site like that is run.... although i wouldn't do that cause i am not a bitter child, since most of the higher ups there (gtamc) know i work for ford maybe they should be a little more carefull it would be too easy for me to ruin anyones waranty but I AM NOT A RAT and wouldn't try to do such a thing, not even if it was a person i was mad at.

good effort guys

All I had heard was Billy was in hiding, cause everyone on the streets wanted a piece of his *** after the show aired.

There was a rumour he was getting his own show or something?

^u gotta be kidding me...

How the hell would Bilyl get his own show..?? What would it be about??

How to rice out a Civic/Celica/Import and be cool in the street scene???

Face it, he clearly ed up, thought he'd be known as a "hero" somehow by showing the media "what its like" to be part of the "Toronto Underground Street Races"....

Done...

Well Billy never did anything to make me pissed off at him.
But he did have a vid of my cougar on his old page.

As for him being the set up man for race's LOL thats a joke.
He use to go up to people at W16 yo yo U want to run your car man? OK I will hook it up. Run over to someone else Yo yo u wnat run your car and get people he dont know to race, Then he would drive his box to the runs and vid tape the out come.

Now if he would have tryed to set people up with people that came out with him or from his Web page it would have been ok. But he tryed to set up people he didn't know and make him self out to be bigger then Zlatko

Yeah I'll never forget "hey I'm Skin Diesel bud" as his famous words haha.

I just remember him saying back in the day how he wanted to try and get into taping real racing, rally, etc.

I had just heard some rumours he was getting in on a show. I was doing TV for a while, focussing on this scene, and I never once heard it about it from anyone who mattered.
