There are some good points being made in this thread. Keep them coming.
As I posted in the wasteland thread on ACA/TT hoon reports:
"The current rubbish being pushed by the media will only make things worse for everyone. There should be a positive push by the community, council, government, police etc to curb these activities, and one way would be a public promotion of off-street racing activities. Maybe things like giving out free passes (funded by the govt, perhaps?) to off-street drag meets, drift meets and circuit days. However, I won't hold my breath.
I think the ideas in Terry's thread have merit and the older enthusiasts should be the nucleus of a positive push on the side of car enthusiasts (not hoons) in the public domain."
