Levin's Mayor is blaming outsiders for a violent boy racer meet over the weekend. 

Two hundred vehicles reportedly took part in the Saturday night gathering. 

Police say six vehicles were impounded and two officers were injured by boy-racers throwing bottles and rocks. 

Horowhenua Mayor Bernie Wanden told Mike Hosking that Police were outnumbered. 

He says locals are outraged by people from outside the community coming in and causing violence in the town.
