brad i can see where your coming from. and i think its where everyone comes from(besides all us hoons) i think theres also a time and a place for everything. being a young hoon of only 17 i have seen a lot of incidents with friends in public places during broad daylight. ala one of my friends around the corner was drink driving at 5pm and wrote his car off into a bunch of trees in front of my house on the oval. but i think alot of people also criticise the living shit out of "hoons" and at times just plainly bad drivers. my mate was definately in the wrong and coped a fine and is losing his license. i think this is very fair punishment, what i dont think was appropriate was the guy that came up to him and punched him one, and went off at him, and the lady which claimed he went around the corner at 90+kph. a 90degree corner where he crashed over 50 mtrs after the corner. yes he took it too fast for his car a heavy arse xf wagon. and hes never been sideways b4 so didnt know what to do, ended up vearing to wrong side of road and into some trees.
what also bothers me is how when i drive down my street and gun in through first and second gear at high revs. i stop at about 40mph so only just over the speed limit people look at me like im going 200ks or soemthing. but i can kane past at 90 in 5th gear and wont even get a glance. i admit i have done a lot of stupid things in my time and im sure alot more will come, but when i do i try to do it as safe as possible, like only at sorta a more safer time than others. like 4am compared to 4pm. again. just my opinion on this topic too. but no brad i dont blame you. but i guess it wouldnt bother you as much if people did it at a place and time where theres minimal to no risk in others? but not just on the track? i wouldnt mind getting your feedback on this. cheers, ryan >From: "Brad Hallett" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: Re:Ben/Legal matters >Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2002 22:10:16 +1000 > >I'll probably be howled down here but I don't care, I simply don't >understand what the fascination is with doing a burnout or racing on >suburban roads. > >If you want to build horsepower and prove yourself and your vehicle, >build a club racer or street class dragger and do your burnouts and >racing at the track.
