Downside of the V8 weekend

[slofox]

Much as the petrol-head within likes to hear the roar of the V8 engines, there is one aspect of this weekend that pisses me off. :angry: And that is..? (drum roll here please...)

Bogans.

In (often enough) old Skylines, and an assortment of other makes and models, who scream round the public streets as though they are in the race themselves, giving not a shit for the safety of anyone else.

Came across one yesterday and have seen two more this morning. Any anal retentive copper could have a field day (if they could get themselves out of the doughnut shop long enough...) :whistle:

Reminds me of the olden days when we used to race at Ruapuna and them run the gamut of wannabes on the way home.

If they think their driving is so crash (sic) hot, why don't they get out on the fucking track themselves..? :ar15:

OK as you were - I feel better now...

You must be old.

But you are correct, racing on the track brings out brainless on th estreets.

[Headbanger]

Damn youngsters, they should all be locked up.:shifty:

Old? Me?...well....just a bit...

All the same, I can't say I like being nearly taken out by a hoon...

boy, that extra year teens will have to wait to sit their learners will make all the difference, wait and see.
and it will only cost the NZ taxpayer several million to pass the bill, change all the documents, educate etc...

As opposed to the Meremere drags, Taupo, etc etc - the're all so sensible after that.

Oh yeah - and Paeroa/Wanganui etc etc :)

I've seen some crazy crap after Paeroa.....not from bogans in Skylines either.

[Toaster]

It's no different to going for a ride after watching the superbikes or the GP. Always faster.... all that testosterone had to manifest somewhere.

[Hopeful Bastard]

Not all bogans dress up like faggots and drive round in Skylines or Subarus or any other shit ass f'ing car thank you.. For some bogans much prefer to ride their bikes!!!! :)

Prolly True marty, but I don't get to see that. Nor nearly run over by the perps like on Friday...

Going to events does make your adreneline arise to the occassion, but yeah............... they should at least be in a FORD

[crazyhorse]

But at least you must be there - as I couldn't make it this time, we're off to Townsville in July to watch them..... Yeeehaaaaaaaa :wari:

Found myself a nice lady - into bikes too - good to see women have attitudes when riding

Personally, I think the downside of the V8's is the pathetic TV spectacle THAT it is......fuck its boring!
MotoGP on this afternoon @3pm TV1 (for those that have not seen it yet) far better option.

[Coldrider]

What wins on Sunday sells on Monday, a few FORDS staying in the car yards next week.

Track entry is expensive and often relatively inaccessible to the average person. It's a great idea in theory, but a poor idea in practice.

Yeah, it is almost have the price of the rubber they destroy on any Friday night.....
