Hi Everyone,

I witnessed something that made me change my opion on Adelaide Cruisers tonight. I was chillen at shell like alot of us do now and again when a candy apple supra pulled in to Shell West Tce. Now a police 4wd drive came in aswell to get there daily fix of Hungry Jacks. They notice the supra and started having a look over it now to me the car did look like he could get in to trouble. As the police were inspecting the car the owner inform the cops of the other cars parked around him to take the heat off himself. While this was all going on I saw 4 Drag races going passed Shell and they didnt care. Two highly modifyed rotors wizzing passed with blowoff valves singing. Now that is defentaly something to inform the cops if you are going to try and take the heat off your self but four cars parked at shell not doing anything to anyone minding there own business and getting picked on because someone opened there mouth to take the heat off themselfs. ( What a Tool ) Its just not on why is this happening?

If I was getting done over by the cops im not about to dob everyone else in to save myself if the supra didnt say anything no one else would of got warnings or defected . So I guess the new polcies is dont give a stuff about anyone else but yourslf and pass on the favour. I thought all of us cruisers were suppose to be on the same side but it looks like we are turning on fellow cruiser if you cant handle getting busted by cops you should not have the car!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah sounds like the Supra driver was first class gay. Dobbing others in is the most uncool thing ever. Sounds like the Supra belongs to Karim, he has one that colour - and he is a tool, so it all fits. Was it this one? http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/index.p...showtopic=86839

If you hang out at Shell these days with all the other scooter gay ricer kids, defects are to be expected arn't they? i admittedly and embarassing used to along time ago.. but the cop situation back then was nothing like it is now.

I've just come back from Perth and caught up with the SAU WA section, the car scene and cops are alot more user friendly over there. I had a few chats with people and they only had nice stories to tell. There were not many cops around at all that I saw actually, maybe it was because they were fighting real crime? Why is it adelaide that gets so shafted?

Yeah Nightcrawler we are 99% sure thats the supra but it was night time and I only saw one side of the car.

But in all my years of being a cruiser which is about 7 years now not once have I ever heard or seen anyone get defected at Shell. We liked hanging out there it was like a safe haven but you still saw everything going on but now there is no were to go anymore and we dont like hiding away. Both of are cars arnt defectable by Regency standards but that doesnt matter to the cops cause if they want to get you they will. My car has been thru not that long ago but the cop gave me a warning on my number plate and to low but by regency its fine. So if this guy didnt open his mouth the cops wouldnt of thought that they had to prove a point .

Cheeky im not sure why we are getting cracked down on so hard cause we have been to Sydney about a month ago and the cops left us alone unless someone is being stupid. We cruised in Newcastle and all the time we were there I didnt see one defect station or coppers looking for people to bust ......... I think that the police in this state need to learn what they are looking at and that there attitude suxs because you drive a nice car but the cops are blaming the Fast and the Furious movie and P platers that copied it........

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
