Hey guys, listening to 3AW this morning, VicPol is setting up a trial taskforce in the Dandenong, kardinia and casey(?) area. They said it will be trialled for 3 months. This taskforce is specifically targeting hoon drivers, drag racing, overloading etc. There was also mention it will try and act as a deterrent to hoons who gather and meet up. I had a quick google couldn't find any articles on it yet. Just a heads up!

Well if they are targetting illegal activity that is good! At the end of the day its this stuff that is making it harder and harder to own a modified car!

But if they are targetting like minded car guys/gals and modified cars then that is a negative!

Lol what a joke. All the pol officers do is walk around bashing people and shoot at them.

That fg meet was a joke, they defected someone for missing a screw in one of the back speakers.

WTF? :O

There was also mention it will try and act as a deterrent to hoons who gather and meet up.

That is exactly what will happen though. Police breaking up totally HARMLESS gatherings, defects, assaulting members of the public etc etc.

It's only going to get worse.

Tougher you try to behave, the more resistance you are going to get

id like to see the proof of this because the legal litigations that this would cause if you were to take it on would be an interesting matter.

Casey is if i am not mistaken.. the following :

Narre Warren North

Narre Warren South

Gembrook

Dandenong

Cranbourne

Just another way Vic Police is stopping itself from doing real police work. Thieves and Killers can breath easy tonight, knowing that the cops are doing nothing to stop them, but are doing everything they can do stop like minded people getting together to enjoy a similar intererst

Lol proof? I saw the defect notice? Lol by all means it wasn't the only thing he was done for

No, they can defect it, but once you cross the border the defect is useless

So do you guys cop a fine etc with the defect? I assume when returning to VIC the defect will remain and can cause a hassle? I guess this is kind of off topic a bit

No, they can defect it, but once you cross the border the defect is useless

i dont believe this to be the case which goes for the same as plates/licence because they have no authority/jurisdiction for it....This is why they push for a change of plates/licence in any given state

This is also the same for truck drivers which is why they have now been moved to an National licence to avoid the issue.

This is also the same for local HWP etc as they can not book/fine/defect outside their jurisdiction of given area/lac

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
