Whose watched this Hoon thing on Today TOnight??

[JXL]

Police and Channel 7 busted some drag thing in an industrial suburb. over 100 cars involved.

Just got the jist and of whats going on but very large operation mounted on the event.

BIG POINT. didn't see one not one Japanese Import car in the piece doing any burn outs, donuts, not even on the sidelines. 90% of the cars were holdens, saw some Fords and only 1 Rx3 that was very highlighted cause he got arrested for endangering lives when his donuts came too close to spectators.

D**kHead comment of the night with a foooly sik attitude, "Yeah i know this is all dangerous but i'm young man, live hard die hard"

Comments on how bad this makes every performance car club look.

Didn't see the previous motorbike thing that was mentioned in the forums.

[Syncope]

Dont have to tell me twice.

[tigeryas]

thats true about how bad an image like this makes us ALL look bad.

Even if they were holdens and fords, it makes the rest of us look bad simply cos we're young and stereotypically we are all made to act the same.

Bah, holdens and fords... theyre mostly auto*... how much fun can u have in an auto*?

*conditions apply

I really wish people on this forum would stop bagging out the opposition constantly! Let's not get into another Aussie/Jap debate (yet again)

And shuddup, doin some skids is cool!

[Boostphreak]

If cops r going t crack down on us (aust/jap car nuts) then where r we going to do it, ok so they the street drags at the motorplex on wenesday night, but what the guys/girls who like to drift and race around? Seeing that u get busted for useing light industil areas.

[JXL]

Yup it was WA cause they said that the WA police force was undertaking this "sting" and if i'm not wrong, WA cops only have juridiction in WA.

My problem with it is the picture that it painted that ANY young person with a performance car partakes in "hoon" activity.

[letemlaf]

what they were doing was stupid and dangerous, like the nuts right next to people, but im sure most people with performance cars have more brains than that.

i dont think its fair we all have that image on our heads. most of us do take more care, even when we are stupid :headspin:

Did this story end with a bust where the Guy swapped seats with his (big) girlfriend to try and avoid getting busted?

If so it was on TV here about a month ago (smirks to himself and thinks the rumors about sand-gropers may be correct)

If so check some of the comments made in other state forums.

There was about 3 guys that swapped spots with their (rather large) gfs that looked hell out of place in the seat.

But the RX3 that busted had this large white PROFOMAZ (can't spell) sticker on the back windshield, looks hell familiar around here pretty sure i've seen it here in perth.

For racing i would check PPCC forums and see if you get any ideas there and for drift i would check cars more suited to drift

i hope you aint a snitch trying to help in the next bust....

[Intensevil]

this happend in tullarmarin victoria a few weeks ago. Was an rx2, not an rx3

[DCIEVE]

yeah they showed a map of the area, definantly melbourne

today tonight tried to pass it of as there own work wankers.

[Butters]

Indeed they did. No mention that it was VIC. Durty mofo's trying to stirr shit as if it was local.

It was the vic lic plates on the cars and the EPA test that gave it away though.

Oh and an edit ...

Giving that dude that charge of attempting to cause bodily harm is ridiculous. 5 years jail for a burnout WTF !!!

Damn i am giving up burnouts and going to go steal from peoples house's from now on, much lighter penalties ....... as long as i dont use a car to do it.

[GWP021]

the media will always show this sort of thing in the worst light and generalise as much as possible ya know make it sound bad enuf an people will watch an then you can do a follow up an a follow up on the follow up and people will tune in to see it s@#$ happens

Damn passing it off as if it was there own gotta be some ethical media law against that because isn't our 6.30pm current affairs programs supposed to deal with our local issues?

Hey how about we go to Current Affair and complain about the story on there and how defaming and biased it is against us. That should go down real well.
