nope cops state that any noise coming from the tyres is grounds to impound ur car..

that chick (sorry i dont know her name) but she got dun for it.. her tyres made a sound and she just drove normally from a street around the corner..

cops said due to the noise she must have spun them or something....

its funny if you read legislation for drunk drivers. they are talking about holding the keys for the cars of drunks after someone was caught 3 times in the space of a couple of hours drink driving.

where is the fairness? drink drive they leave you with your car and drive off. squeel the wheels they wait around for your car to be picked up by tow truck. riiiiiigggghhtttt!

i wonder if the cops have it the same way as parking inspectors? I heard on Today Tonight a few yrs ago that a parking inspector gets more kudos / pay rise / better chance of a pay rise if they issue more fines. Some guy quit cos he was getting hassled by his council for not giving enough fines.

So does a cop get better sh!t if he issues more fines / impounds cars / just being an arsehole?

Was a cop on his motorbike with a radar gun on Elliot Rd this arvo, I got a warning from some dude before I came over the hill so I kept to 50, and he was standing right on the corner of the street I need to turn into. The wet weather had shifted some dirt into the corner, and as I was turning the wheels skidded on it (this is right next to him) and straight away I was thinking he would come after me. That feeling I got is :bs!: because that is all it takes now to get your car impounded. I don't have my 'line yet, but I can guarantee he would have come after me if I was.

He had a look at me to make sure I didn't do anything else but everything else was ok. I turned my music down as well, radar gun cops hate that, most of the time I just drive past them & they have a look. :D

in resposce to this, if u blow beetween 0.05 and 0.079 u can drive u car home with a fine......they do actually make u stop if u blow over 0.08

so what they are talking about is if u keep drinking and driving around and stay beetween that limit some how

anyway the squeeling tyres things suks and cops in general suk wish they were out actually stopping people robbing places/thinsg instead of bustin our asses for stupid shit

Hey ive decided if i get done for being a hoon, im getting my car back. I will tell this to the judge and the police too. Unless of course i was doing something really stupid of course, then i deserve it. Cant be that hard to get you car back out of the impound lot. Its my property and i have a right to it, screw this hoon law thing its a violation of our rights a citizens of Australia. Even if they did make an amendment to suit its still bs. They can take my license and i wont drive and the car wont move (like i did a couple of months back) but taking the car! dont think so.

:D

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
