strikes are based on the driver, not the car.

they dont reset, when you get to three you are the final straw for three years. AKA, my car has just been auctioned off and i do it again, 2nd car immediatly auctioned off.

i find it f**ked that only 15 people have died because of street racing since 1997 yet they are confiscating our cars.

as to the guy that said they would know your rego, you ever heard of a fake identity (aka, the whole lot inc birth extract, bank accounts, address etc). If i KNOW i am going to be caught thats only a small effort to go to in my books

that would have been me.

i dont get it. are you saying get your rego details changed to fake details? and even if so do you honestly think many ppl are going to go to that effort so they have a chance of escaping cops?etc? think about this aswel: youd have to change your plates EVERYTIME you escaped a chase.

i think it would be a MUCH easier task to not hoon. or atleast be very selective about where you do it :(.

cheers. james.

EDIT:

yet they are confiscating our cars.
correction: they are not confiscating OUR cars just people who hoon. you make it sound like EVERY BODY on this forum hoons. and also, just because it was ONLY 15 ppl who died, try using that argument against the family members of those who died.

i personally think that faking your details is rather extreme and stupid way to get out of losing a car. if you get cought for it then you get into even more trouble for fraud.

as for hooning, a guy i know bought a r34 gtr off a guy that had lost 16points in 3 weeks. he owned the car for 3 weeks, then sold it after he lost his licence, since he knew he was going to lose more points when he got his licence back.

and as for changing your plates after every chase, if the cops type in a rego plate and it no longer is valid, it still shows them who it was registered to, and the new rego number, so that is pointless too.

and the cops have about 2 weeks to book you after the incident. so if you get into a chase and the cops don't happen to get your rego, park the car for 2 weeks afterwards.

meh i cant think of anything more retarded than these new laws

Sweet.. i lose traction in the wet, and i get put down for "drifting" and my car gets clamped at south kensington station, next morning its got the crap keyed out of it and shaving creme in every orifice..

That in itself is f*kd.. They said they may tow they may clamp but id be hoping it was down to the drivers choice, which one happens.

second offence you lose the car for 3 months.. thats probably not so bad..

But as some one said before they start trying to take peoples cars on the 3rd offence, ther'll be somehigh speed chases.. People gonna have like secondary drop down number plates, that cover there real ones and crap, james bond style. Also, if a guy gets pulled over on 3rd offence and theres 4 other blokes in the car, theres a pretty good chance that a cop or two will get hurt as soon as he says "im repossessing your car"

Personally i would run before letting them take my car.. i wouldnt think about it being stupid, id just go "screw that they can take a burned out shell if anything" and drive..

fake identities are a bit extreme, but a fake passport etc is like a grand for a good one, less than a 34 GT-R...

15 people killed since 97 and they do more for this than stopping drink drivers etc, it aint about savin lives. taking a drunk's licence away, and throwin him in jail will cost the stat money, auctioning off skylines will make HEAPS.

mad082 - go steal a set of plates, do a runner. then the cops cant prove it was your car, even though there might not be many around like yours, but any half decent lawyer would make a mocary of it in court. in short, steal a set of plates, go race, ditch the plates, wait a few weeks till the heat blows over, go do it again.

R32 gts-t, i know what you mean, and you prove my point from before, theres gonna be a hell of a lot more high speed chases, and not from crazed bank robbers and what not like you see on worlds wildest police videos, it will be people that cant stand to see their pride and joy get taken away from them, with no return/compensation, made even worse by the fact that you will be labeled a hoon when you arent meaning to do anything wrong, like your wet road situation. it happens to my mother sumtimes in a crap EA falcon, its damn sure to happen to some-one with a turbo skyline

but if it is just a spur of the moment race, you don't really have time to pull over and grab a set of plates off a parked car. then if you do get chased and happen to get away from the cops, but happen to run a red light in your escape and get clipped by a car, then the cops turn up to that you get into more trouble again, and could end up being someones bitch in a 3x3 cell.

so its easier to do the right thing in the first place.

i seriously dont know how ppl get into high speed chases. if your racing on the streets and go past the cops at high speed i dont think there going to chase you.

if so they have a duty of care. cops chasing cars at high speed is stupid. they're only going to make the person running from the cops panic and increase the chance of ana ccident and innocent ppl being hurt or killed.

yeah but cops have these wonderful things called radios, they dont need to chase you, they let you go, then when you think its all good and drive like normal, there'll be heaps more of em waitin for you down the road, or better yet, on your doorstep

    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
