Anyone catch the ACA hoon crack down on tv tonigh?

 

How was that smashed up black car. He was lucky to get out of it ok. Couldnt tell for sure what type of car it was.

They were only ever gonna hurt themselves in the middle of no where.

The goverment needs to create drift functionability ahahaha. I mean make some dedicated hoon playgrounds.

For farks sake look at the summernats.

Its so big now because they dont hold enough events or atleast advertise them.

If it wasnt a once or twice a year prestige events i might be able to afford it 9nce in a while. Especialy if the events are held more often more local .

Wich i believe if the goverment help funded people would take up the opurtunity to be a part of something big , legal and a possible carrer oppurtunities everywhere in an industry that hides its potential well.

 

Careful careful hoons.

Dont trust a you tube streamer bahahaha.

 

Heres a pic of how i feel when i dont do the biggest skids.20171217_151656.jpeg

Every week in every state there's track days, motokhanas and drag strips open to the public.

From as little as $60 at the drags.

It's easy to do it legally, with the benifit of emergency services on hand.

There is events. They are poorly advertised and rarely are they supported by the goverment.
Also yes there is some cheap events just not enough aimed at your average joe blow that cant afford $60 for entry.

I have 10 kids man it cost an arm and a leg just to feed em the day not to mention the fuel cause usualy somehow they are always miles away bahaha. Lots of dirt stuff out here in gippy not much for burnouts and drift.

So im up for 150 food 100-200 fuel 60 entry. Minimum.

Or leave my family out it and go myself making it seem an exersise of greed causing guilt leading to me not going and maybe soloing cheap local naughty.

30 bucks.

I also dont see much amature road drift either. Street or mountains. I think targa is the only realy big one.

Just man up, look after your kids more at home and enjoy your alone time hobbie from time to time, they'll just get in the way (of others too) at the track... it's way more f**king selfish if you go and kill yourself on some back road leaving your kids to be raised and god knows what else by the next man your misses shacks up with...

Do some research, easy to find.

A government funded racing event would likely have HWP sitting at the gate ready to rape you on your illegal modifications, which by the way, pretty f**king selfish to be pouring money into your car if you're struggling to feed your kids or attend events lol... racing a bog stock shitter more often is still a lot more fun than not racing a modified shitter.

Well i never said i struggle to feed them.
I said it cost an arm and a leg to take em.
Dont you think they would wanna see. Wouldnt you as a child.

Dont tell me how to look after my family you do not know me or how much it cost to feed my family at home and you dont know my children or have a clue on how i treat them or what i spend on them.

Whats the problem hwy patrol at the gate.
Who said i wanna modify the car im taking.
Not keen on comps so much more just fundays. Skids n shid.
Its not just that the events need to be on more but the play grounds need to be more accessible to average people and families.

What about people who have different hobbies/interests? Is it also up to the government to help them out, subsidise things and make it easier for them?

 

Pretty sure the answer is no.....

No it doesn't, the average person doesn't even know what car they drive or how it moves, you want to be involved in a niche expensive hobby, you have to be prepared for the expense (not really that expensive if you're smart about it) and inconvenience.

I couldn't think of anything more boring for a child then to be forced to sit/stand and watch other people have fun, it's hot, noisy, flies everywhere. Trust me the novelty for them will wear off after 30 mins and you'll be packing up to take them home.

Get farked dik head.
Im over this forum. People like you are killing it.

If yor hobby is goin out of control and makin it to aca dont you think the goverment should.

Im not even going to respond to dik heads wanting a fight instead of discussion from now on.

everyone agreeing with you 100% of the time is not a discussion...

stop using your kids as an excuse to go risk your life and potentially innocent bystanders lives by being a "dik head" as you put it, on public roads.

 

However, at least one thing the government should be doing is ensuring the preservation of existing race tracks, and not letting developers build housing close and later forcing restrictions or shut down due to noise complaints, which is the biggest issue with "local playgrounds" for hooning, anywhere near housing is never going to happen or be sustainable.

Imagine all the race tracks they could build and provide access to free of charge if they canned bludging for the dole!!... I could get behind that!

Hell yeah, and all the hospitals and aged care.

People on the dole should have to do community service for their money.

Plus all the junkies and lazy scum on benifits.

Plus all the welfare dependence from one scum generation to the next, subsidising their income through drug sales or theft.

Always with a hand out for stuff that they think the world owes them.

Scum, aarrrrggggggg.

The end ?

Get shutdown givein me shid and you actualy start discussion.
Your a fool.
You dont know me or what i do.
Preserve race tracks.... wtf.
Im not talking racing or prestige events.
This shows that even if you dont agree with me you are trying to use my position to prove your right about an off topic.
Wich is ok to incorporate but when you act like im using my kids as an excuse not to go proves you a pole smoker not a decent human.

ummm ok... I didn't realise you could only have prestige races at race tracks :4_joy:, would it help if i called it a Motorsport Park instead?

What i'm referring too however, is existing tracks that host amateur sprints, drifts, drags and burnout days are being surrounded by houses that over time has led to restrictions, threats of closure and such. Which is 100% the governments fault/responsibility. You're not going to get any new venues in your backyard if they can't even keep the existing ones open. It's plain common sense.

I must have misunderstood the part where you mentioned the cost of feeding your kids stops you paying $60 for an event...

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
