Boy racer protest

[dipshit]

I had to laugh when I read "the protest was set for last Friday but was postponed because of rain". Hahaha, what pussies;

They are just talking shit like a lot of wankers in this forum do.

i went past the mcdonalds at about 5am this morning on my way to the taupo 4hr enduro, i stopped in at the shell to put air in my tyres, i have never seen so much rubbish and beer bottles around that area before there was a mountain of mcdonalds wrappers which were obviously just discarded out the window of these "car enthusiasts" and its like that most weekends.

Thankyou to all who have taken my posts in good humour and with a bit of understanding.
And for those with complaints i do understand where your coming from,
Spilling deisel on main roads is moronic, Ive been past that round about once when there was deisel down, and seeing an 18 wheeler tractor trailer come through at a reasonable pace had fears of a serious crash.
Its also terrible for unsuspecting women (sorry ladies i know some of you can drive well) and you guys on bikes.

While there are many many elements of this "boy racer culture" that i cannot condone, there are so many good points that the public should be aware of.
Owning a decent car gives kids something to work towards, be proud of, and spend money on rather than just being no hoper druggys or burglers etc.
It brings money to local buisness' and many other aspects.

This street racing (in reality theres very little racing) will not go away, it needs to be managed properly. Why not simply give the racers an abandoned carpark to go to and park up?? it seems every other group gets a place to do their thing and yet we are shunned by the government.
If there was actually somewhere for them to go to do their thing, then by all means crush anyones car whos stupid enough to race on the roads.

I'm all outta bling at the moment. Will dish it as soon as I'm free to do so again (I'd give you double if I could).

That's a good point - however short sighted that expenditure is, most boy racers spend the equivalent to a deposit on their first home - but hey you're young and aren't looking that far ahead

why does this generation continually think it is someone else who should GIVE it to them, you'll get no where in life if you keep looking to the government to solve your problems.

Being a car enthusiast is not new, being harrased by the police for getting together is not new - but no one gave us a place to go - we formed ourselves into clubs, I was part of a club set in the Waikato so we could go on club runs - get together a talk cars, check each others 'rides out'. We put our money together and hired Baypark raceway and Meremere drag strip regularly to hoon around on.
Much the same as Frosty and others on here do for KB. We hired a local hall and had an agreement with the council - if we damaged the carpark we paid.

A true car enthusiest would be trying to organise a club run, club days at tracks, car shows - where the public could come and really appreciate the effort some of you have put into your work of art.
A true enthusiast would not be interested in, or supporting those who are just there to hang around public roads getting pissed, endangering other motorist, pouring diesel on the road and littering and fouling the place, loosing control and slamming into the front of the cafe....bla bla bla

if you want to make a difference - YOU get organized, don't wait for the government to GIVE you anything

What smokey said.

It's not your God given right to be given something, just because you want to do burn outs and drags doesn't mean the tax payer is gonna fork out for it.

If that's the case, I'd like a new 1000m shooting range in auckland for me paid by the tax payer, as it's my passion.

Oh they won't? don't worry then I'll do it on the street instead!

Have they started crushing these wankers POS cars yet, can I watch?

But seriously, it could be low cost family entertainment.

Then they could stick them on a pole (the cars not the owners) as a warning to the other morons what happens when you piss all over the rights of general public.

I would be gutted seeing some of those awesome cars getting crushed - total over reactive poorly thought out response.
Ship them to Aussy and auction them off, use the money to help first home buyers, or the cheap loans to fix leaky homes
if they want their car back; they have to go to Aussy to buy it and bring it back

You can't export them because after modifications they won't comply with the ADRs.

Straight into the crusher then use them to line the side of the road in place of those bloody wire barriers.
