went for a casual drive up devils elbow when i spotted 1 huge white blob in the middle of the road, luckily i wasnt really going fast but even still there was so much of the sh*t it made my car lock up. motorbike riders woulda prob been put on there ass by it.

gota feeling it might be the assholes in the house up there as it was real close to there joint and they prob dont like people going up there at night.

after hmmm ing wether to go slow and minimise splashing i decided to opt for the post hast to mt lofty bp where i raided the water buckets squigys and bought some tissues to mop it up but there was still a milky look over my car so raced back to town and learned a whole new appreciation for the high pressure hose. prob dumped about 20 bucks in that machine but the cars looking pretty good now,

only damage i got was side skirt where it joins inside the wheel arch there's a lil white line on the top where it joins but easily fixable and a bit of splash inside the wheel arches which is easy enough to paint black again. will be able to tell for sure tommorrow but it looks like ive pullled outa this 1 pretty clean.

still what da f i thought i was having a boring night, how sad is it when all you can think of doing is dumping paint on the road and hidding in the bushes while sniffing the rest

eh, the only time eagles is half decent is at 3am in the morning, it's too high speed to be doing any earlier as cops are usually all over the joint.

what time did u go up there, judging by the post around 1am? wouldnt expect much bs around then

hmm, the fact that the paint was in a big blob does sound intentional, normally when a truck drops paint it leaves a nice big trail.

if u still have any paint on your car, wax and grease remover works great. just use 1 cloth for the solvent and a clean dry cloth to dry over afterwards. :D

ive actually never seen a cops up there before, been attacked by them on the expressway once but thats it. how many of you guys been attacked by em? ive heard people say they go up there but never met anyone that seen them themselves.

i dont do high speed antics, dont like floggin my engine. just keep a steady lil pace, i go there more so to chill out, i like it up there cause its lit up easy to see n no hero's to bother me. well usually no hero's there.....

there used to be a lil vigilante group that went up there to abuse any sports cars. seen them while out with my bro, but they were jus funny :) lot of f words and not really nothing else to say guy wasnt even man enough to get out his car to talk to us. he drove off further up the road to yell his abuse when we walked up to see if he needed any help

i suspect it was a commo driver, there cars seem to be white alot :D

hows it going mitch surprised you wernt too drunk to remember musnt have been drinking enough

had a look today paint work looks fine cleanest its been since its first wash, just the lil touch on side skirt easy fixable, there's a bit of paint underneath car which im assuming will come off in time and in the guards. wheels have nice white marks in the grooves.

possibly i can get white smoke burnouts from the coloured tyres :)

i remember just after they opened the tunnel someone dumped diesel fuel most of the way on the downtrack, very dangerous. i suspect that was from one of the houses up there aswell. the paint could also be a disgruntled cyclist/bike rider there is a lot of them up there during the day.

ive never seen many cops up there, unless there is a lot of cars or when people keep going up and down all night. i usally cruise down when i head to town.

i did see a 180sx with a s15 front end doing donuts and drifting around the traffic islands up the top about 2-3 weeks ago.

Thanks for the heads up on the paint. I ride up there often. :banana:

Some 3-4 years ago the cops were all over Eagle. They tried to make us bikers "go away" at the request/complaints of the residents, but we remained persistent. We ended up reporting the residents in the area for tipping oil on the road, putting fish hooks on the guard rail (where we would sit), and they even went as far as standing in the middle of the road shining spotties at us as we rode up/down the road. We got the cops onto them and there was a 3 month monitoring of the area. The residents committed 42 traffic offences in that time, but motorcyclists were only report once! The cops wised up and left us alone. I really have not been bother by cops on that road in years.

I'm not surprised it'd be a resident(s) in the area. :P

I was up there around 10.30 last night and didn't see any paint, so must have been dumped after that. But i'm with dan, i only go up for a nice relaxing drive and to feel my car lap up the corners, don't go up to redline at every chance i get.

you mean the night before sleepr85? it was on sat night it happened, was on a straight pretty huge pile hard to miss. if i seen it half a second sooner woulda prob been able to stop in time.

as if the people living there did not think of cars n such going past at night when they moved in. good idea moving anywhere is to stake it out at night n see what its like, crazy neighbors etc :P

Sorry my bad. Went up there on monday night and didn't see anything. But i agree, who buys a house on an deserted old freeway and doesn't expect people to be taking it up for a bit of a burn sometimes. That's like buying a house next to HQ nightclub and then calling the cops every 2 minutes because the young hooligans next door have their music up too loud!!!
