Operation Vikings, run in conjunction with the RTA and Environmental Protection Authority, targeted drag racing hot spots in the greater Sydney metropolitan area.

A P-plater, clocked at 204 kmh in a 100 kmh zone, was one of 323 given speeding fines during the operation.

Vikings Commander Superintendent Greg Rolph said he was alarmed at the number of provisional drivers who continued to speed.

"It is always alarming the number of provisional drivers who continue to drive in a fast and dangerous manner," he said.

"Police from across the Sydney metropolitan area have spent the last six weeks actively targeting car racing and hoodlums disturbing the peace. This kind of behaviour simply will not be tolerated.

"Police will continue to target street racing across the city in the hope that car enthusiasts will eventually get the message."

They can't seem to see the difference between Drag racing and street racing.

"Police will continue to target street racing across the city in the hope that car enthusiasts will eventually get the message."

They also seem not to know the difference between a car enthusiast and Car Hoons
