Summernats Hoons

[Helious]

I just heard something I would have expected not to hear from one of my friends.

From what she said, after the nats had cleared out and everyone went to Braddon about 10 or so Skylines in a group were acting like Bogans. Burnouts, hooing around, shouting 'White Shirt' sticking their fingers up at whoever cared to look, and most of all throwing bottles at other peoples cars.

Now I know alot of people who get pissed off, if not everyone, if a Bogan driving a commodore pulled up at the light and just as the lights turned green they pegged a beer bottle at ur door causing a rather big dent.

Only problem with this is it wasnt one bottle it was well over a case.

I'm personally ashamed if anyone on this forum was part of this, as us skylines already have enough problems being targeted by cops as it is.

I know there is alot of skylines around, but the cops dont care.

Personally I'm alot more relieve now that the nats are finished as I can drive up and down flemmington without getting defected.

That's just pityful. Someone needs a good hit to the back of the head if that is true.

My car stayed in the garage the whole time over the weekend because of the nats.

Does anyone know if there are other 'Skyline' clubs in the ACT? It's just odd to see 10 skylines being disrespectful, i'd understand one or two as they could be mates, but 10 is pretty much a gang mentality...

It was guilt toy and twoogle wasn't it?

fauckin barbarians man!

[TiTAN]

paul was too girly to come down

[sexy33]

there are quite a few skyines out there that carry on like wankers and give everyine a bad, there was also a couple of skylines from interstate driving round for hours on friday night.

i dought it very much it was anyone from skylines australia/ ACT

[Bullet32]

I know of at least one idiot in a black R33 Gtst with a big "drift" style body kit who hoons around the Calwell / Theodore area making a bad name for us by driving like a complete moron... I wouldnt be surprised if he was involved.

The problem is that Summernats brings out the worst in so called "car enthusiasts" and the pack mentality takes over... I personally wouldnt be upset if the Summernats was relocated to Sydney or Melbourne.

LOL!

[Bliksem]

My bet is one of those 10 is a member here

[GTRKat]

This is exactly why my car stayed in the garage during almost this whole event.

I must say I did see quite a few Skylines driving around that I didn't recognise. The ones that acted badly are more than welcome to piss off back to wherever they came from

[zZzDanzZz]

my car was out but i steered well clear of civic braddon and exhibition park during summernats. so glad its finished lol.

I'm with Bullet32, wouldn't give a shit if summernats was moved interstate as it seems to bring out a lot of wankers each and every year.

bring autosalon to canberra!!! much better cars and better looking models

Even if my car was working, wouldn't of gone anywhere near the place with it. Been to summernats before, once is enough for me.

[GTRKat]

Autosalon in Canberra would be awesome! I'd be there for sure

[WARDY32]

thats wierd coz i was down in civic and braddon both nights and hardly saw any skylines, not sayin they wernt there, coz obviously they were.

I reckon i saw about 8 crusing all up!! And we had 1 dude in a R33 that was trying to race us in my mates VLT.. wanker. considering there were 2 unmarked cops behind us!

Im in the same boat as the ACT guys, wouldnt really bother me if summernats goes away (i go to canberra fairly often living 2 1/2 hrs away)

I also think they should have the same alchol restrictions as powercruise (no alcohol till 7pm) if it keeps goin

[Sinista32]

IF its true

99% it wouldnt be SAU members - ACT or Interstaters.

But as per there is the 1% ers. Throwing bottles FFS Grrrrrrr

DR DOOF is just taking the Piss about Twoogle . It's not running ATM.

We all like wild fun at the right time. Assess Time/Place/Risk/Safety before lighting em up.

it was that gus kid.

see as the story goes...when he was younger he used to hang around mister jimmy the jester and big bad mick. all they could feed him was storys about raging against the machine and dancing around cars with disco lights on top of them. he grew up with high hopes for what would happen when the sun went down and braddon became a beer filled paradise full of blueys beer and the one guy stupid enough to drive his lancer through us all.

so when he got older what did he do but follow his peers jimmy the jester and big bad mick.....he bought a skyline.

and now this "gus" character is known as mister three two and my god...what a beast. drifting around round abouts...showing vl turbos that nissan engines are better that dinosaur technology, and spitting in the face of all the true jap fanboys (i mean really, cars are ment to do burnouts not be "appreciated"). and when he sees a woman all he needs to do is single her out by shouting the colour of her top and she knows. o she knows. the disco lights kept going and the burnouts kept on spinning.

and then.

the world died...summernats left...the disco lgihts stopped and it was like hell on earth. no more girls to yell at or beer to drink. no more thrashing cars or abusing people that were there for a "good time" (good time...who the fk appreciates cars these days ....BURNOUTS...)

so what did gus do...

powercruise motherf**kers

*the names jimmy the jester and big bad mick in no way reflect people gus actually knows

+1

I'd swap Bogannats for Autosalon in a heartbeat. Would even escort that whinging Henry fella to the border.

Thats gold Gus,

I remember the old days when you bummed lifts off us all to go out to Lonsdale street during the Nats... I have to admit, they were good times, and somehow none of us ever really got caught up to much in the atmosphere of grog, burnouts and tits.

But us proper entusiasts grow up while bogan idiots dont, we go to car shows like Autosalon (some of us go to SEMA) where cars can be appreciated as works of art and people of all backgrounds (be it muscle, tuner or bling etc) can get their fix of quality automotive culture without getting into a fight with some Jap car hater or having to stress about what idiot will jump out of the crowd to grab your girlfriends chest.

I personally cant see the point in burnouts (especially being a tyre man) it doesnt take skill to smoke tyres, all it takes is horsepower and a heavy right foot.

If you want your monthly dose of tyre smoke and hardcore cars, go to a drift round...

Its time for the Summernats to move on...

My two cents

[datto260Z]

I would be surprised if Chik Henry continues it anyway, he has been talking of retiring and I doubt anyone else could pull it off. Hopefully if they do, they f**k off to some other city.
