You're spot on. I just smile at everyone who complains about cop attention at meets, they made it this way! I think the last meet I tried to attend was a JDMST meet a couple of years back. Cops attended the last ones I went to and fair enough, I would to if I knew there was a high chance someone was going to do something stupid. Gone are the days of large meets where everyone just stood around and talked, chilled and appreciated eachothers cars.

yeh the funny thing is, it was all fine.. everyone was standing around talking, there was a yellow 34 with some music playing for everyone, there was shisha.. people were walking around talking just enoying it.. even a dumped delorean came!

then this cadbury chocolate rapper decided to fiddle with launch control, and did skids then left and came back for a 2nd round of launch control

everyone after that just followed suit i guess. such a waste of time now.

Ahhh so you ended up going to the meet Aaron, I only left Scotty's at about 8:30 lol

Going by how these hardtuned/jdmst meets are going, once day cops are going to come and block every exit and start defecting every single car in the car park

it's only a matter of time....

this is why i dont do meets anymore :/

depress clutch

rev to redline

drop clutch

this method would skid a lawnmower

lawnmowers don't have a clutch..

ours had a pedal you press top it go forward you press bottom it go back,

so get on concrete get momentum in reverse hit forward.

front wheels lift inch, 1/2 meter skid I was happy..

Dad not so much..

Yeh it was relatively good to begin with. Then the above purple s15 started and everyone followed.. The only cop that rocked up was a normal divy van. I thought perhaps either they were pre occupied with the city and possible Muslim riots.. Or actually give the people a chance.. Buh eh. When there's cops, they complain, when there's no cops, they do skids. Children

Armed with this 'new info', totes time for some 'meets' xD.

i do realise lawnmowers don't have clutches... it was just the least powered thing i could think of without resorting to jonoe's car

LOL

    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
    • Yes, a plan for non-action is always my first sort of plan! I'm happy to see what falls out of invision's update. I had been having some thoughts on what to do with this the other day and they all seem to have fled my memory, after various solar panel induced traumas, squeaking suspension sphericals, etc etc, over the last little bit. I'll try and recall what I had in mind and make sure that I put it into print in some form before the Alzheimer's strikes again.
    • The ability to have both a 5500 stall for launching, and a regular lockup for every other scenario is pretty sweet. Does it actually work well like that though in the real world? Would it hold up to track use and otherwise you'd never know you had a stall converter in it? If so, that's awesome
