An alleged drag race in Springvale has left two men without their cars.
Casey Highway Patrol members patrolling Princes Highway stopped at traffic lights at Corrigan Road about 12.45am on Saturday 29 April.
It’s alleged a Nissan Skyline and Mitsubishi GTO took off from the lights, travelling west on Princes Highway, and reached 145kmh in the 80 zone.
Police intercepted both cars and impounded them for 30 days.
The owners will each have to pay $917 in towing and storage costs to get them back.
The driver of the Mitsubishi, a 25-year-old Mornington man, and the driver of the Nissan, a 31-year-old Surfers Paradise man, are expected to be charged on summons for racing on a highway, driving at a dangerous speed, driving in a dangerous manner and careless driving.
