I believe "driving on the road" was likely to be another reason the residents would have given. Got a warning to check my rears about 10 mins outside of the final meet spot.

Its a charity cruise, and they start defecting. Oh there will be a letter in the paper about this one!

Every single old bat that I drove past through the hills just looked and stared in shock and horror as I drove by in my totally stock standard quiet car... had a good lol everytime, received honks and mid fingers from oncoming traffic aswell.

Stopped dead in the middle of the road at this one straight section because a pair of emus decided to walk slowly across, I stopped and honked and one of them turned and poked its head forward as if it was about to run at me to attack ;)

reckless driving as in burnouts/ loud take offs ?

Or the other reckless driving as in doing a fart , driving over 2300rpms, starting up your car, etc etc ? grandma spec reckless driving >?

anyone witness it ?

i can vouch, douchebags stopping to rip skids up the corkscrew, had a rexy all over both lanes in front of me for half the cruise. that s15 with the vault chromies lunched it, straight into a guard rail.

parked at the bp at the finish meet point, got word of cops from scandy and heslo so left from there. then sorta ended up next to heslo, a dark blue 33 and a lighter blue 33 cruising back towards ttp way, all sticker free i think.

you know why

because ive heard in a number of media reports lately the words "hoon" and "car enthusiast" get merged into one group statement

so we're now "hoon car enthusiasts"

thanks media mike, ya f**khead

did u escape sticker free?

My car got looked over and got cleared, bastard stopped me as I was tryin to leave, he went all through inside car, glove box ,centre console . Are they alowed to go through inside of car, or they need a warrent?

125 reports from hills residence!!

Im not suprised, one of the S13 drift cars i was behind for a bit was drifting like he was at lala. Also spotted an old dude filming people going up corkscrew with his camera, then just after corkscrew everyone decided to pull over for a burnout show, few cars infront of me stop and i almost rear ended them and then i had cars doing skids right next to my car in the oncoming lane while i was stuck behind people ;)

Well as with most cruise, there were the boro spec and track spec cars. The cop i was talking to was more annoyed that the organiser was no where to be found. I know Wayne and his mate had some guy actually block the road with his car in Montacute just after the Corkscrew! Now there is reckless endangerment!

If they have suspecion Nick they can

Reckless driving, excessive noise, driving without due care, you name it

I think that the cops are full of shit. The cruise would have been lucky to pass 125 people and the chance of every one of them picking up the phone and calling the cops is very unlikely. they would have received 20 calls max if they received any.

Remember the cops were notified of the cruise because it was an official cruise and they would have decided long ago that they were going to "have a strong presence", so regardless of what happened people were going to get defected.

But Old Mark cant be everywhere at once, although we tried to keep the guy there..he did start getting quite pedantic "wheres the organiser of this cruise?" "can you guess why we are here?"

Kinda makes you second guess wether you come out to these cruises anymore. After doing nothing wrong, you still get a giant target painted to your car.

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday.
