Saturday morning/lunchtime spotted 2 maroon R33's, on both occasions drivers were clearly looking down texting while driving and didn't see me wave. Switch on ya idiots, if you stack into a tree it'll be another kick in the nuts for performance/modified vehicles cos seriously who's guna see a skyline wrapped around a tree and think "i bet they were driving safely and not speeding".

I had another sweet road rage incident haha.

Had a commonwhore follow me down Barton highway sitting I close for my liking.

Did the old tap on the brakes and slowed to about 60 in 100k zone but they still wouldn't over take.

Ended up finally flying past me on double line with a huge puff of smoke

Dont know where they were off to but was fun splitting both sides around this fuel tanker (bit of Fast n Furious style) :D lmao

Rev Head round up on ACA tonight at 7.30. Fark me

extra attention from the Po Po for a while, like there's not enough already.

I hate hoons bringing this down on enthusiasts.

last weekend for example. Good time had without doing burnouts and drag racing.

Time and time again it kills me to see the 'car enthusiasts' they interview - were they ever to interview a proper enthusiast or come to a proper event, and write a story without putting a bad spin on it from the beginning, things would be a different story.

I know! Why do they always pick such total dumbarses?!

We've talked many times about inviting them to one of the bigger, properly organised events in Sydney (such as the Anniversary Cruises for example) but we just don't trust them!

At the end of the day, we'd have NO SAY on how the story is run. And we all know what that means! It's better to try to keep our name away from them altogether.

After working in the media for 20+ years my best advice is ...... Don't do it.

Journalists will rarely do the story you want to tell, they will do the story that will be the most sensational regardless Of how many facts get bent, twisted or completely blown apart. There is a simple equation .. News must get ratings, ratings equals viewers/readers/listeners, which equals a demand for advertising which of course equals money .. And that's all that counts.

No one will want to watch a story about a bunch of Skyline drivers cruising, sticking to the speed limit and drinking milkshakes, so the journos don't want to know about that stuff. Show the public a story of a group of people that everyone from 9 to 90 should fear, in screaming turbo charged visions of death doing burnouts, now there's an attention getter (even bigger when you chuck in a few P platers)

Tread very carefully using journalists to get recognition, think about who or what they are working for first.

    • Hahahahah, look, your not wrong πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ and thank you brother πŸ™πŸΌ jokes aside, I haven't driven the car in 6+ years and it's like I'm starting all over again, and furthermore the car is wayyyy more powerful and it's characteristics are night and day different now compared to what I remember. So I'm slowly easing myself back into the groove, the car is literally scaring me a bit tbh.....it feels like it has 200hp more than it does on paper and responds like a cammed Ls v8, and-some! πŸ˜… every single bit of throttle pedal travel and input has instant response all the way to the floor, zero flat spots or labouring feelings, it's nuts.

    • If the house has ever been sold before too, they have photos from that etc.
    • I used to do that, but then I got savvy. The benefits of having your phone photos geotagged outweigh the negatives. I just don't publish any photo straight off the phone/out of the gallery/off google photos, etc. If I'm going to use a photo, other than for SMSing to fam, I will always open it on the computer, copy it/otherwise edit it and save down without the original metadata, before using it. For example, posting photos of my engine bay into a thread on here, to show someone a plug or something - I will just screen-cap the section I want to use and paste that section direct from the clipboard into the post. No metadata goes along with.
