JAS-25T

You beat me too it. Cheapest too. For track days they are the best. Especially well worn in ones. Although they are not FIA fire rated. Keep in mind you can get FIA fire rated racing shoes. They will cost you a few quid. These are only required in racing events. Generally not on trackdays though.

You're not the only girl to say that too me

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHELL

Yeah I get what you mean, but what constitutes an "arrest" as opposed to a "search" in want for a better term. If there is any difference in their definition that is. Anyone got links to police law? hehehe

Really?

Safer roads is a big one. Especially down here in the Gong. The vehicle safety is driven by the car manufacturers. Driver education and Safer roads is what the RTA should focus on.

He wasn't arrested Bert. Just pulled over.

Just to add, Those people that want attention do up those cars. They get the attention they want and the unwanted attention of cops in doing so. They get the attention of one old coger that writes to ACA or TT and there we have it

I think you guys are missing the point. The graph you show is kind of irrelevant. The only things we can conclude is where the major drops are showing when (what I assume to be) Seatbelt wearing became mandatory. The gentle slide after would just be general things like, safer cars, better roads, and laws to improve safety such as lower speeds. P platers in general (this no longer includes HPI type drivers as they have a law against driving such cars) are over represented in that graph you have shown. They are the people who should be targetted in any campaigns to kerb fatalities. Although, I do feel that recent data showing any P plate percentage of road fatalities may be skewed against the P plate drivers. As a percentage of total drivers, P plate drivers have increased recently with the introduction of Green P plates. This has of course increased the percentage of P plate drivers over the total amount of drivers, and as such you would expect an increase in their representation on any statistical analysis. Hoon's have been historically the younger generations. Back in the day, when it all began, the youth would modify their cars, and race on the streets. That is no longer acceptable as people expect safer driving conditions. P platers are that generation now. They want to have that same fun, but have now a lot of restrictions on them. Now that they are also a larger group than any time before. This finally brings me back to point Jon is making. The car of choice for that group of people right now and probably for the last 10ish years in increasing popularity are imports. It's clear when you drive around the streets and around the local traps. Those people will be targeted for that reason, They are percieved to be part of that group of people no matter if they are or not. I owned an import for 3yrs and in those 3yrs never once was pulled over by a cop and harrassed.

That was pretty quick - came into some of the shicanes pretty quickly, heard some compression locks or brake lock ups. can definately hear all those rocks lol

It was that extra 20 killer wasps he had that fried the clutch! lol

hairy muff

busted car?

Looks like you guys had an awesome time - very jealous, and sad that I no longer have my 33

Didn't look through the entrant list but I hear that QSR will be taking one or both of their Bimmers. E36 and E46

more pics!!!!

You're a bloody legend mate. Mixing it up with the big boys and showing what the GTR can really do. Looks great in those photos. now that the motor is sorted, hopefully the rest of the car can be sorted for 4 weeks time and you should be able to chalk up a win!

LMAO warning - foul language

While this is the law, unfortunately it is not enforced correctly every time. I was involved in an accident where it was proven, beyond reasonable doubt that a prudent driver would also have an accident in the same location under the same circumstances (by showing accident data for that road combined with RTA reports that the road should have been repaired). I also had the charging officer say in the court that he was doubtful that I was driving in any negligent manner. I was still charged with negligent driving anyway, as the magistrate used his authority to push me around. Moral to the story: Just because the law is written in such a way, doesn't mean that a magistrate can not over rule it in your favour or otherwise.

Duncan, its 7.988/171.23 OK = 4.67% OK = not good.

Would you take $300?

That wont change the fact that driving straight, turning around and doing it agin is boring as hell. no seriously I hope this event does get the competitors it needs

maybe they realised drag racing is ghey!

Hey im not driving a diesel yet. ahahhaha I'll blame my fat fingers for that one

Bumblebee is good. R33 LS1 conversion is now officially called the bumblebee conversion!
