drift session

[MarkR33]

anyone up for a drift session tonight in the scarborough police station car park?? just a though

Next weekend the boys n girls in blue along with our friends in the road transport department will be going out on a little operation to target

" young people in hot cars"

they will be targetting imports , as they have had a training session on what is illegal and what is not

what is an import and what is not !

and mainly other hot cars and stuff

so if your going out next week remove the nos and put on the silencers as i hear the yellow stickers have been printed in bulk

P.S typical knee jerk reaction of cops after pathetic media coverage of the 'race scene'

its over next week and the long weekend , so yeah just keep it cool and dont attract tooo much attention

P.S.S have a friend in police traffic

P.S.S.S will be next weekend targeting all hot spots scarbs , freo illegal drags (which apparentlygot sprung last week and stickered plenty)

P.S.S.S.S will also be the following long weekend

Oh great, more cops wasting DPI Inspectors time.

No doubt 90 percent of the cars they sticker will go straight over the pits and get the sticker removed.

On the up side its nice to see someone admit that until now theyve had no idea what is illegal or not... so much so that theyve needed a training session to find out.

I wish they would actually get taught what is illegal and what isn't:D

Luckily I'm away next weekend:D

actually u'd be suprised how much they do know. I've seen cops in action at scarborough and most times what they sticker for they are well within their rights to. Its up to the car owner to get permits for modifications on a vehicle. Face it most owners dont "know" what is legal or not they only think they do. If they did know then they would realise pod filters arent legal unless in an enclosed space or fitted correctly and then issued a permit for by pits.

my 2c on it.

Got a friend with a crazily modded GT4 Celica. He got pulled over by the cops and they lifted the bonnet to have a look. He asked what they were looking for and they said boost controllers. He replied he didn't have one. They left him alone. What he didn't tell them was the motec handled boost control anti-lag and water injection. They had no idea. It was also running avgas and no cat.

Summoner,

Then why do most of these so called illegal cars pass over teh pits first time, many without a single modification from the moment it was stickered?

This is the issue I have with police not knowing what is illegal or not. Sure, owners need to get permits and most of the time DPI will tell them whats required and help out in that regard. But im sick of cops claiming something is illegal on the side of the road when its clearly not.

Like my brother being asked to turn his fog lights off at an RBT in his 180SX. He doesnt have fog lights. The cop threatened him and said if he didnt turn them off straight away hed be fined. Once again my brother reinforced that they were park lights but the copper insisted they were fog lights. With cars banking up behind him the cop had to resign in the end.

I mean if they cant tell the difference between fog lights and parkers then i gotta doubt their knowledge of car legalities.

So for any police reading this, 180SX's DONT HAVE F&*CKING FOG LIGHTS!
