    Sure they takes risks, and on occasion some other road users were endangered, I am not condoning that. We have all been there and done that in our time, if we look hard enough!
    End of the day, it sounds like a few green eyed monsters here.
    At least the guy who got the ticket for 141km/h didnt whine and whinge about "the pigs" when he lost his licence.
    I think you're in the wrong job, pickin them up has made you too tolerant. "The speed must come down" Plus your bitter about the event you had. But I do sort of agree with you when some are just jealous, that they can so it and the cost doesn't worry them. Probably family money anyway.
    take two asprin and call me in the morning if you don't feel better.

    Watched it too
    Really enjoyed the show,
    does seem like alot of sour grapes on here though - just coz they have nice sports cars doesnt mean they are rich and doesnt mean they are dickheads.
    I see the boys from Hutt Choppers had a car in it too - but lets not get into the whole harley riders etc LOL

    Looks like great fun but some of that footage should surely be used to take a couple of license off the drivers. And as for the Lambourghini guy, yes he did pack a sad over the ticket and loss of license "141km/h this car is capable of over 300km/h and youre doing me for 141km/h" classic rebuttle and in turn the cop took offence so was happy to issue fine for no warrant of fitness.

    No, but he did call him a "humourless little fucker" which I thought was quite funny!

    I realise they took risks and if they had been responsible for any accidents I would have been baying for their blood like everyone else, but I bet the parts they showed on tv were set up for the camera. The overtaking on double yellows wasn't good - although it looked like you could see miles up the road in any case.

    Good on them, there were some great cars and I bet they had a lot of fun. Haven't heard any comments about the "rich pricks" from the chopper place in the Hutt - or are only bikers allowed to be rich and drive/ride fast?
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    A KBer was on that run...... in his porshe.

    No, Im am gonna say who it is....... but this person is not rich..... they live comfortably but they are certainly not rich.

    Yep he had fun, he wasnt doing the speeds that some were doing.

    I only found out that he did the run after he got back...... and then found out the bugger owns a porshe.

    The run has been going for a number of years, it is only because of the media coverage that everyone is now talking about it.
    As to the bus incident, re look at the film footage..... the film made it look closer than it really was.

    Yes, we as bikers have been known to speed out there on the roads, some have been caught and busted for the offence.
    Some have been known to do the same speed as what the cars were doing.

    How many of us watched the movies "Cannonball Run" and its sequel's?
    We all loved what they did and the hi-jinxs that they all got up to in the movie. That was based on the americans doing the run many years ago.

    As far as I am aware, not one person has been killed or maimed during this non race.

    Those rich wanna be bikers from the hut only assemble bikes don't they?


    I'd go along for it but not enter it, just happen to be going the same route as those guys IF I could afford the gas! I can't even afford the ferry trip across.
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    The guy that organised it - Max - is a friend of a friend. He's not a dickhead at all. Fecking good bloke.
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.

    Self made, as far as I'm aware. I may be wrong though..

    The guy in the Black M5 is a mate of a coleague of mine. He sure didn't get his wealth handed to him on a plate. He was on the dole at 17, started his first property development after getting sick of being on the dole. By 18 he was bankrupt, started again and did it properly (Legal structure) and is now 23 and very wealthy. OR at least that is the story as told to me.

    Oh, I do have a copy on VHS, I stil haven't watched it.
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    Better to be a rich bastard than just a bastard! Good on them, I say. If they get caught, at least they can afford to pay the tickets. Got nothing against rich people, especially if they got that way by bloody hard work. Several friends of mine would fall into that category but they'd be the same great people even if they were poor. I know a guy who used to turn up to rally sprints towing his rally car behind his Lexus!
