MaTBoY Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 Well, I know the press are morons who cash in on anythign at any expense........ I really have to hand it to them though, It was a top effort to find some1 as mentally challenged as that! It's a shame because manyh people will now form that as a major image in mind when they hear about car enthusists! I'd write a letter to today/tonite, but they'd only take out the parts they wanted and change em to suit their needs......... There is just no justice here! > "The only good cop is a dead Cop" hmmmmmmm, Star ship troopers mentality. I dont liek coppers sniffin near my car, but i dont wanna go n take em out either.

Haha yeah right If we took them to a BBQ thingo they'd probrably make up crap for ratings ie: christian is standing there cooking sausages and they commentate "this man obviously has crime on his mind, probrably going to stab someone with that bar-b-boss...." etc doubt they'd even show it at all actually. i mean who really gives a shit about the positive side of stuff on them shows? it's all negative negative negative Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/629-street-racing-report-on-today-tonight/page/3/#findComment-15259 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 I seen it, didnt even know it was on. What a meathead ... I mean yer sure i HATE te jacks as well and yer sure i wish them harm everyday, but u dont go sayin it on tv... Even thoe street racing is a rush and a half, and afterwards leaves you wanting to go again, you just have to keep as an ocasional thing. You would be realy pushin your luck is you raced everynight.

BOOSTMEISTER Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 I taped it last night and just watched it.....That freak was rediculas. He is certainly not your average car nut he is a freak. However, did you notice that the chick driving the black celica (Yeh like that thing is road worthy) she had no horn on the steering wheel and the steering wheel doesn't meat asutralian standards even for a car of that age. I am not condoning what that freak did but I would bet that his car would stop and handle better than hers... Anyway that is not the point, I think exceeding the limit in built up areas is stupid (the highway is another story with most roads in australia well under the international speed rating by some 20%) Oh by the way that dark R33 on the show, anyone here own that? was it a GTR if so not a bad doughnut ...... lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/629-street-racing-report-on-today-tonight/page/3/#findComment-15282 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DAZSPC Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Perhaps those of you over 28 or so will remember the GTHO Phase 3 Falcon, the GTR XU1 Torana, and the E38 Charger. 3 bigtime Au Musclecars from the 70's. All able to pull a sub 15sec 1/4 mile time (That was quick for a factory car in those days) All serious Bathurst contenders, and all produced cheaply by manufacturers for homogolation. Anyone remember what happened to the Phase IV, the XU2, or the Hemi V8 equipped Charger? The media happened. The exact same thing ACA was preying on now, Radio and newspapers did in the 70's "young kids in powerful cars are going to wipe out everyone" kinda thing. Except it worked. All the manufacturers got stung hard by bad press and all of a sudden having the baddest fastest street legal track racer as part of your catalogue went from priority A to priority Z. The media prey on the stupidity of the masses. We, as gearheads are not 'the masses' so thefore that shite don't appeal, and you'd have a less stressed day if you just blew it off as the BS it is. But for the sake of carlovers all over, keep the thought in the back of your mind that the media can and does control the masses, who control the corperations who in conjunction with the Govt, control your rights. They took away our cars once before. It sure as hell can happen again. OK, so now u all think I'm a paranoid weirdo, I'll say Hi. Hi, I'm Darren, I'm a pro IT geek and (hopefully) soon to be owner of a slick looking black Dec94 R33 GTS25t M Spec with a couple of little mods. I'm in Sydney and I'll be lurking on these forums a bit becuase they seem to be right full of tasty Skyline info, just the stuff I'm going to need to ensure my new beast becomes a tire frying, 1/4 mile eating, dyno crunching horespower whore.

Birty Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Well I wasn't old enough, but being a big ford man and i didn't mind the old XU1's, i've read a bit about the ol Phase IV GTHO and what not. But the media will always run this country, and not only this one. It's good to be in the know, but the government needs to make sure they tell the whole story and not what they want people to hear.
