I found the police officers opinion on car crushing the most interesting.

We really need a drag strip here in SA with a reasonable entry charge so those that do street race realise how crappy it is when you can't really give it all she has without fear of being busted or some one pulling out in front.

I have seen this report before, one of the better "hoon" stories ACA has done.

For ones they are looking at the other end of the spectrum.

Also who the f*ck was that b*tch on the radio talking about crushing the "hotted up do-b do-b mobile" She should get her car crushed for one.

good to hear the other side for a change.

but 10 f6's at 70k each and their only getting 1-2 cars a month? is it me or does othes think that money could be spent else where? somewhere where it's needed maybe?

cops need to make other people know that their there, not hide to try and blend in to catch people in the act. stop the act before it happens!

i could go on and on but its not like it really matters. nice find either way.

ive been defected out the front of mallala once along with 60 or so other cars that day. all i was going to do was watch some decent drifting.

i understand that if your car is illegaly modded then cop it sweet but noone knows what illegal or not anymore. people are being f**ked over for the sake of it and being sent to regency because of the car they drive.

im waiting for the day that we get pulled over towing the drift car on the back so they can defect it :down:

People do speed to and from Mallala so why defect stations, this only prevents people from attending such events and keeps it ON the street.

Spend the $$ on increasing the number of speed camera's or laser guns.

I too have seen the defect stations but then carried on to see a lack of speed laser/camera's with some overtaking at crazy speeds.

Modifying will never be stopped so why not try to stop the behaviour on the street and encourage 'hoons' to take it to the track.

yeah thats the key......needing a drag strip is no brainer, it goes without saying but just you wait and see, if and when we finally get one, 17 year olds will have to sell their mum's on the street to be able to afford entry just so the strip can be paid off pronto......some of these kids with turbo cars can barely afford the petty to drive out there let alone a ridiculous entry fee......they'll continue to abuse Adelaide streets and only the true cashed up petrol-heads will pay the entry fee.........I'm generalizing of course but keeping it real nonetheless.

Good find btw Joel.

i vote SLED contacts aca adelaide and organises an interview, pledge exactly what he just said above,

and make sure they learn the difference between an enthusiast and a hoon ffs.

pfft why?

SLED drives a burnside bus now!

ror

-D

that's a low blow Ben............it's kinda like my GTR.....twin snails, 4WD, 3" zorst, Bilstein suspension, 6 speed, slammed....to the carport ceiling. :)

Yeah but it still gets no respect from me mate :)

You want me to respect an off road vehicle? Buy a unimog you softcock!

:blink:

I ran this idea past some people months ago, but there was no interest in it.

An interesting find tho.

    • Yep, totally get that. However hooking in for Generator back up is only a few hundred bucks for the wiring. You could put a couple of those in (for different circuits explicitly) and run a couple of baby generators. Bonus, you can balance them across different circuits, and now have backups in your backup. I'm looking at buying places that won't even have water etc, and I don't mind the idea of getting off the electric grid either, even with everything you've said. This country already has enough power outages that even the mains grid isn't that reliable anymore. I do agree though on spending a bit more to get better gear, and to add some extra redundancy in to the system too.
    • You can set hard reserves on your battery system, and it can't be discharged past that.  
    • That sounds like an excellent idea. But total self-sufficiency means exactly that. You have no-one else to blame when your system faults out and you have no power for a week or two while it gets fixed. You'd have to go the whole hog and get a diesel genny and all the switchover gear, to get you through such times. And, despite the fact that over 20 years, my system has been pretty reliable**, I have seen so many inverter explosions (or less dramatic deaths), panel and roof JB fires, and so on, over that time, to know that the stuff is the same as any other bulk Chinese manufactured stuff. The failure rate is well above zero - both on the equipment and on behalf of the meth addled installation labour force. And then..... warranty and means of redress against the supplier you bought the gear from. Best I can tell is that only a handful of solar companies are still around within 5 years of starting their advertising pitch. They disappear and phoenix like crazy. So, as per 1st paragraph, I suspect the only way to is go balls deep and spend maybe 2-3 times as much as you might think, so that you have every base covered. Plus, know and understand your gear intimately, so you can diagnose problems, sort them out yourself, etc, etc. Plus, probably have to consider upgrading various parts as the years pass, to maintain compatibility with newer stuff, performance and reliability, etc, etc. Whereas, remaining attached to the grid has an ongoing cost that keeps going up even if you use bugger all power from it. But it does provide the fallback in case of the worst case with your own gear. You either pay up front or as you go, I suspect.
    • Add more solar panels to the array. Call the electricity company and tell them you're moving out... Live off grid electric wise
    • Hi Jasmine. How's the war going?
