I live in a quiet little street but lately the Boy Racer factor has been getting out of hand.
Tonight they were racing side by side down our street then finished off with a half arsed wheelspin.
I've had enough of these pricks spoiling my little slice of heaven...time to take a stand.

Got any ideas on how to deal with the wankers???? all legal of course :devil2:

Put up a sign on the street saying that the street is monitored by CCTV. They won't know if it's pukka or not but will not be prepared to take the chance. Signs available from places like Hills electronic security in Petone.

Failing that firebomb the cunts

Describe what they're doing and quote their number and stand by what you say.

It is the only way to realy nail them (almost) and at least they get annoyed by police knocking on their door. (well down here we do -and it results in court appearances and/or tickets) :clap: .

buggers assembled it with the wrong rods.

I was taking some photos at a reserve one day and these dickheads started chewing up the grass in their wank mobiles. I took photos, printed them off and took them in to the police. Couldn't exactly say "it wasn't me, officer" when you could see their rego, what they were doing, and who was driving. Come out with a camera a few times and they will find somewhere else to play.

Only other alternative is to move to the country, down a no exit road like the one we live on! Heaps of tyre marks on the through-road that leads to ours (especially by the intersection with the railway line - man, I hope they miscalculate one day!) but none down our road. It's too narrow to try anything on (ditches either side) and there are three houses at the very end of the road so they wouldn't get far if they tried anything in the turning circle there. Result? Dead quiet all day and all night - bliss! In town we used to live on a street with a 90 degree corner halfway along, so they used to slide around it at speed. I don't miss that stupidity - combined with their thumping stereos and crap music - one little bit.

I reckon as well as getting the cops involved, a more long term solution would be to get the council to chuck in a couple of speed bumps. The really nasty short ones. It'll be a bit of a pain for everyone else too but might be worth it if it makes them simmer down?!


Heh - either that or next time you're out sitting on the chair on your deck having a smoke, hold a shotgun across your chest and rock back and forth chewing on a bit of straw. "Yerrr - ain't none o those darn boii racers messing wi' Uncle Bruce's lane anymoore, eh Cletis?! KaBOOM!!! Nope - there sure aint son."

Good shit!! We had a similar type of thing, those caught on the video got done to the tune $800, those that said "I'm not saying who was driving my car" got done to the tune of $1,500!!!

Living in West Auckland was like living in Pit Lane at Pukekohe on the V8 raceweekend,it was constant,non stop day and night.Now we are in a small town I guess the boi racers are known to all,you can hear them blasting around - but they seldom come down our culdesack....because a boi racer lives next door! I think he is very respected in their community,often a peer group has a respected leader (American Graffiti) although they like to come and show him their cars,they wouldn't come and do a burnout outside his house,that would be bad form.Maybe living next door to a house with 12 cars on the front lawn has some advantages...

Then you get the noise of them (and everyone else) engine braking, followed by them gassing it back up to speed again.

I like the idea of the CCTV (whether its real or not, but real would be better) becuase it not only deters the boy racers, but also might help deter theives. Worth a try anyway, especially if you live in a culdesac. Not expensive these days to get a cheap little cam that records on to a PC's hard drive. Just get a couple of decent sized hdd's, and some motion detection software (there is stuff available on the net for free).

I know you said legal but grab a hunk of metal pipe and you can smash a surprisingly large number of windows/windscreens in the time it takes them to realise whats happening, start the car and take off.

Course I've never done such a thng and this isnt speaking from personal experience :whistle:

The Police might welcome somewhere to store their cars while they are waiting for the budget to get them warranted. Their own yard must be getting pretty full.
How about asking them if they'll trailer one down to your street and park it on the side of the road as a visual deterrent?
Just a thought....

get yourself some tyre spikes
go out and loiter inconspiculusly
chuck them under the wheels when they pass
dont get too carried away and check there not still on the road (the spikes)

Neighbourhood watch mate...

Talk to all the folks in the street. Get them all to go buy a cheap disposable camera with a flash in it (assuming they don't own one) and when they start up, all come out and take pictures of them.

Compile a list of the registrations and hand to the Police.

You can find out the car owners names / address from the rego and send them a letter politely asking them NOT to do this anymore.

Cheers

Space Invader would be better. :yes: Gives you the choice of TotalSilence mode, or if you get a bit creative with a small-diameter pipe, Squeaky-Farty mode.

I'm sick of BoiRacRs - it's not just the horrible droney zorsts - it's also stuff like the dickhead who crashed into the back of our Fiat and took off quickly, leaving us with the insurance bill. Luckily we didn't have to pay the whole thing, as he did over $3000 damage. Obviously got no balls (and perhaps no licence or insurance either) if he can't front up and admit to what he did.

It had to happen one day... I actually agree with Spudchucka.

Video them, make sure you get the dodgy stuff and the rego. Doesn't matter whether you get the driver or not, cause as Scumdog says, the registered owner will get pinged these days if they don't supply the details of the driver.

Can't say I pay too much attention to the bois spinning it up or giving it some welly myself, else I might end up falling into the hypocrite category. But racing side by side in a residential area? That's a bit on the edge even by my standards. If I was doing that, I'd expect a ticket for it.

Not only that, get out there with em with the camera, egg them on to rip up a burnout, just tell them you're putting an xtreme video together and you cats are the coolest so far, get some interveiws with them, jump in the car with them and see how fast they can go etc etc, and then goto the cops with it, that'll fuck em good.

loose bruce's idea is awesome! and crazy's is close to what i was gonna say...i know some who rolled a brick onto the road just as he heard one coming (they often drove over 100kph down his street so was getting very pisd off). It is however risky and could cause a crash...but they'll definantly not speed past again for fear of there nice delicate fagoty mags being scratched. either that or jump on an R1 etc with a bat and chase them down and kick in their tail lights.

This wasn't in my street but tonight coming home, I was swapping from left to right lane, indicating etc then some DH in a beat up white Honda with a hoodie & stereo thumping pulls out to pass me (stayed quite close to me mind you) and pulls back into the lane directly in front of me. I was shaking my head in disbelief and he pulled the fingers at me then at the next cnr he turned off! WTF is that all about???!!!

Live on a t intersection across from a dead-end. Used to be very popular with the local lads but then they stopped coming round, don’t know why.
Jax's heard some breaking glass, yelling, then a car tearing off and now they don’t do it any more.
I wonder what happened? :innocent:

Spud guns would work. PVC pipe, plastic welder, glue, some PVC adapters.
And to power it - Either a barbeque lighter or wires hot glued into the chamber with a cow prodder at the other end.

Not that me or anyone else on this site has done it before (Speights_bud) :whistle: :Punk: :devil2:

We get "boy racers" hooning down our road heaps. Real worrying cause it's a one land road with heaps of blind twisties. I'm thinking of trying to get a speed bump put in one real dodgy bit but I dunno. I was babysitting my neighbours a couple of months ago and we heard this screech and then a crash and went outside to find these two young fellas wandering out of the bush with blood specks all over there faces. They'd gone way too fast into a corner and dropped off the edge about 6m onto the river bed totally wiping out the car!

It's real funny cause one of my neighbours who's 9 years old just asked me tonight why boy racers all have these "sort of red dots all over their faces", and is it something to do with alcohol!!! What a classic eh.
