THE Mexican Hoon Cartel have brazenly goaded police by performing dangerous stunts on the road outside of a Gold Coast police beat.
A video uploaded earlier today shows two utes lining up outside the Elanora Neighbourhood Police Beat, while a cop car can be seen parked in the driveway.
The cars can be heard revving and squealing before smoke surrounds the cars.
A third ute can be seen dangerously speeding across the nature strip and driveway just before the other two utes leave skid marks on the road.

The post reads: “Happy Valentine’s day to Queensland Policia from your favourite cartel.”
In another video posted two days ago, a silver ute spins and does burnouts at an intersection believed to be in Varsity Lakes, disregarding changing traffic lights.
Last year the group was dismantled following a series of reports by the Bulletin which also culminated in charges for members of the group.
Members of the group had terrorised Coast suburbs for months, allegedly targeting residents’ addresses with graffiti.

The group was forced to pull down their original Instagram page and created a new one to publish their exploits in September.
A police source told the Bulletin at the time that they were working on bringing the group down again.
Those following the page expressed appreciation for the anti-social behaviour, with one user writing: “You guys are weapons!!!! Love ya (sic) work keep it up.”
