I work in North Sydney and live in St Ives and my R32 is my daily driver to and from work and I have crazy stuff happening to me every day. I leave my house at 6:30am and get all the nutter labourers in the utes in the morning. They want to race me and when I don't they pull in front of me at high speed and sit there going 5km slower than the speed limit. It happens everyday.
I also have a serial Porsche boxter looney who tries to kill me like every afternoon. I was at the Fullers road and Pacific highway intersection at Chatswood last week, 1st at the lights in the right lane with him next to me in the left. When the lights went green he took off hard and drove up the middle of both lanes almost taking the front off my car. He drove like that all the way to the Boundry Rd intersection where I kindly asked him why he was driving a chick’s car. Needless to say it only made matters worse and he nearly felt my club lock make contact with his nose.
Now when ever he sees me he goes past me as fast as he can and cuts in front of me.
I have had police wanting to race me from Falcon Street in Crows Nest heading north. They pulled up next to me late one evening and started hard reving. Both the officers were just staring at me and trying to egg me on. I was driving an older gentleman from work home to Artarmon. We had worked late and he was snoozing on the passenger seat which was set back and was not visible to the police. When he sat up and looked out the window the police freaked out, put there siren on and took off.
What happened with manu was idiots in a blue rex wanted to race him on Parramatta rd. He was in the right lane and they were in the left. When he decline they took off, cut him off within like 2feet of his front and slammed on the brakes. He had no where to go as the REX was still 1/2 in the left lane but turn right and brake hard which caused him to loose control of the car, run over the divider, and slide down it sideways, and end up going sideways into oncoming traffic on the wrong side of the road. He is lucky there was no one coming the other way at the time otherwise things could have been a hell of allot worse. If you saw his car at SnS his back right wheel wasn’t sitting straight and it cost him a fair bit of $ to get his suspension fixed. He also lost all the LED's from under his car and has some nasty scratches. Still considering, it could have been a lot worse.
I'm just a tad annoyed at how things are. I have had my skyline for about two months and love it to death. But I feel I need to carry my 12gauge in my car to protect myself and the heap of hard earned money I have invested in it. Also I believe thieves should all be shot. Last week I came home early (about 3pm). I left my car on the street as I was only getting something to eat before going out again. I was inside less than 20minutes and was pulling the front door shut as I was leaving when I heard some one yell "RUN". I looked up and saw 2 guys run from my car. One had been sitting in the gutter trying to get one of my wheels undone. I dropped my shoes (which I hadn’t had time to put on yet) and chased them down the street barefoot. They jumped a fence of a school before I gave up. 10minutes later I was at Bob Jane getting lock nuts. I have a tilt and shock sensor in my alarm but still better to be safe.
Sorry for the rave.
