I did see the driver enough to describe his age, ethnicity etc and it had personalised plates. In relation to Where I perform Laser duties I don't see that I would need permission to give out that iformation. I have at least 3-4 other streets in my area that I sit also and TMU and other members have 100's of others so naming one spot in a thousand I highly doubt will worry anyone.

I am not saying that I would be successful in tracking them down or even if do find them I agree It would be unlikely to prosecute but I still think it's worthwile to try to track them down.

Reality is could look into further charges not just traffic related. That much over speed limit in middle of day in busy industrial area could speak to them about charges similiar to conduct endangering life. Not unreasable to have truck pull out of Driveway in front of them etc

How will you prove his speed though? Do the laser units that you use keep a log?

What other things would you actually look at charging the individual for? I'm keen to hear what it would fall under in regards to the Victorian road laws.

If you know his age and nationality why wouldnt you look up all Yellow GT3's

Filter it down to those owners who fall in the given age group

Then filter it down again to those with personalised plates?

Maybe make a fancy graph also and show it to people at the station. They'll see you're a hard worker and will probably give you a cool nickname like "graphy-grapherson."

i will swap you the details only if!... u get me.... a shrubbery! once you have the shrubbery with a nice little path down the middle, you must cut this tree down.... with a herring!

Haha love it.

*officer pulls over gt3 porsche* " it's just a flesh wound!" *officer impounds porsche* "alright we'll call it a draw".

I've seen cops on several occasions sitting on ferntree gully road with the radar, so many times that I'm very conscious of them every time I round the corner. By night they sit in the median strip and shoot their "LASER" at the corner so they'll have your speed before you see them. During the day they sit on the chesterfield farm side of the road and just poke out down the side of the roadworks.

Contacted Porsche Dealership and possibly under 10 Yellow GT3 sold in last couple of years. Will get onto Vic Roads next week and try to get list of same. Fairly hard as I doubt they would put them in sepatare category so list probably include all Yellow Porsche's. Bit like GTR just is listed as nissan skyline.

I already have a "cool" Nickname at work and my boss already impressed at how hard I work. Have most arrests at station by mile and in top 3 for penalty notices issued. I just think you should work hard as we have no reason to do same there is no work performance awards. I could do 10% of what I do and actully finish on time for once but that's not what I'm about.

Laser Unit's don't save speed so it would be my word against their's in relation to that if it ever went to court.

You could possibly look at charges like Conduct Endangering Life, Driver manner dangerous, speed dangerous, careless driving, exceed speed limit and improper use re speed under new hoon laws.

Unless your nickname is Rabbit, Farva or Mack it ain't really a cool nickname....

And it doesn't count if it is a nickname you made up and introduce yourself to others with either... that's cheating

MEOW!

How long have you been in the force?

May I ask what section you work in? (I realise you would be reluctant to give out details but a general work area?)

These are OT questions so you could PM if you like.

MEOW!

What about if you just start calling yourself Donkey?

eee f**kin orr

to the OP. GL in finding the driver. I'm sure if he's smart enough to be able to afford a GT3 then he will be smart enough to know the law also ;)

glad to see our $$$ are going to well deserving hard working officers... why loathe a hang on something that happend... you didn't catch the guy.. get the f*** over it. i'm on the road 24/7, do you want me to report every tom dick and ha...... officer, isee breaking the law to you and you can then waste time trying to background check and csi investigate every one of them..

Hmmm maybe he is a cop, he did give a keep a look out call for the vehicle and he has now given more details that would allow him to narrow in on the car in question if it came to his attention.

BUT sadly the overriding fact pointing to him indeed being a brother in blue is that he prides himself on being, and i quote, 'top 3 most penalty notices given.'

Are you sure that you are not TOGS mate??? only those blokes pride themselves on actually hurting more than their quota.....

Is the OP doing posting this whilst on duty? Or is he doing this in his own unpaid time?

Hey i got an idea.

Find some real criminals who are raping/murdering/selling drugs/breaking into house/stealing cars/laundering massive amounts of money etc etc.

So a guy in a porsche decided to give it a squirt on the fast pedal...Meh. Yeah i realise that some one who didnt look before entering the road could have been crashed in to etc but it didnt happen....but what did happen is someone had their house broken in to somewhere. Good luck with your state revenue and reaching your "target".

I can't believe you guys are giving so much grief to a police officer trying to do the right thing. If you read this guy's previous posts you will discover he's actually very fair on us import drivers, yet you give him a hard time?

I agree that the title of the thread is wrong, but wanting to have a chat to the driver is pretty fair all things considered. All you guys in this club trying to protest your innocence and looking down on hoons and idiots who drive fast. As soon as someone actually wants to do something about it you give them a hard time. Most of you clowns are in WA unfortunately or I'd love to see the threads you create when he pulls your ass over. I'm sure more than a few Melbourne members would look upon him in a different light so if you have nothing nice to say, STFU.

endrant.

why be nasty about it? seems a bit hostile of you to take such a negative-zilchy stance on our replies.

In fact if anything, we have supported his exploration for answers.

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
