The Evo that was pulled over would be me. I would have to say it was just being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and not paying attention. 
Right now, I'm not going to get into any details as to what happened or anything. All I will say is that I was not racing, or anything stupid like that.
However, I will say this. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone because with as many cars as there were, I'm not entirely sure if there was only one or two red Evo's in the crowd; but I believe that there was only one. I know who he was for sure, and I won't say his name here. During my whole ordeal, I was told it was started because a red Evo and a blue STi were racing down I-5 towards Olympia, cutting off other motorists and were estimated to be above 100mph. Before they pulled me over they had SIX INDIVIDUAL reports of those two. They also had reports of a silver or gray Evo racing 2 Hondas. These vehicles are the reason they swarmed I-5 in the first place. I happened to fit the description of the silver/gray Evo, so they came after me. I was talking to Shawn (Baby Evo 8) at the time, and he had seen the red Evo and the blue STi racing and cutting people off, and also had seen some Hondas and an Evo ( if I remember correctly, I could be wrong ) goofing off in front of us.
It was made really clear that the whole point of this was to show the public that we all do not street race. Even at the meeting point, the coordinator stressed that he didn't want anyone racing on their way down to Olympia. While I was pulled over, I personally witnessed at least ten cars being stupid on the freeway and cops were everywhere.
Since I've been told that law enforcement agencies will be looking at the forums over this whole ordeal, I won't get into anything about mine on here. I have been told though that they hope to prevent this from ever happening again. If this is the case, people have ruined a really good thing by racing on the freeway during this.
On a side note, who is a really good attorney in the area?
