Surely thats what you would expect from the bogans on that particular forum.

The forum agreement when you sign up surely dictates you must be of the 'rip a skid' kind and be atleast 95% bogan. If they didnt have that automotive forum (if you can call it that) they would equally spread out amongst others polluting them with boganised crap and illegal automotive socialising.

Typical self centered f ucks, hope the police got some good photographs to back up the letters for EPA and roadworthy.

I'm all for skids but there is a place and time for everything, this was not the place.

Idiots.

^this

I wonder in which moment did these cluster fucks think that the police wont be writing all the plates down. Oh and awesome job on playing down the whole "hooning" image, fkn nuckle draggers.

Seriously f**king idiots..

I hope the lot of them get their cars impounded.. If not crushed for being so dumb.

If they wanted to 'rip skids' why didn't they have a track day or something like that in their memory?!

So embarrassing to even share the road with these people.

Am I the only one who sees the irony there...

Such a sad thing to happen. Reminds me of about 10 years ago with a guy i used to play ice hockey with. an absolute champ at such a young age got taken due to a driving accident.

As we left the funeral 1 ute driver bagged it up out the front, about 5 guys threw stuff at his ute for being a twat and not respecting the situation.

So what actually happened to the guys who died?

But what I wanna know is, why didn't the police stop the idiots doing burnouts and fine them on the spot?

Edit: Quote from Boostcruising.

To my knowledge the police were aware of what was to take place and blocked the road to allow it to happen.

According to some of the posts they died doing stupid shit.

As for the police, well apparently they only sent one car out to start with.... seriously outnumbered, what were they gonna do? :rolleyes:

It almost looks to me like they decided to just let them do it, and then move on, rather than start a full "incident" and have a mob on their hands

That's exactly how I'm reading it.

Being a funeral, the situation was always going to be emotionally charged - taking on those doing the burnouts could've ended up being very ugly.

The police blocked off the road - yeah sure, for the safety of the other motorists, that wasn't a green light for them to do what they did. I don't know a single cop that would intentionally block a public road and allow a burnout comp on it.

It's one thing to give it a go as you're leaving, it's another thing entirely to do standstills for an hour. It's selfish and it's disrespectful. Imagine if you were there visiting a loved one's grave, or even worse, having a funeral while all that crap was going on? This wasn't about giving someone a send-off, this was about using someone's death as an excuse to engage in a pissing contest.

I know if I was the funeral house, I'd be asking plenty of questions at future funerals if the deceased was a young male. Some of those marks look like they'll be there till the next millennium - not a good advertisement.

Problem is, boostcruising = SAU = any other modified performance car group to the media and general public, so they'll think we're those idiots.

Shell/Iron Chef - agree with your take on situation. Its reasonable to assume they will all get tickets etc in the mail. I certainly hope so.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
