OK here we go...a summation of everything i have read here in the past however long...maybe an hour
WE DON'T BLAME HOT 4'S!!!
we blame people who drive like dickheads, who tend to be either ricers or commodores (commy's give me the irrits, alot of them think they own the road!!!
). it seems hot 4's is a ricer mag (i havent actually read it...). the short and curlys of it is that we all hate people who drive like dickheads, and unfortunately its a minority that cause this bad rep. furthermore, it will be impossible to rid our streets of this plague. its the showoff factor that is attractive (we want to show off out mini's, but for the style, not the way we drive!) therefore a special area for this will not be too effective. plus, no-one will want to pay a fee to use it!
I am a 20 y.o. p-plater, i have been done speeding numerous times. i have done a couple of silly things, but never been hurt, never hurt the car (respect is what it is!!!) and ALWAYS by myself, with no-one around.
someone said earlier that drifting is bigger that dragging in adelaide i think? personally, i think it is heaps more fun to muck around on gravel or grass, where you can have a bit of SAFE fun for you and everyone else, rather than going as fast as you can.
What's the fun in going fast in straight lines??? also, its about respact and care for the car. if you treat it well it will be good for you.
also, i feel commodores and rice burners have no style at all, thats why i love classic cars. STYLE!!! going fast, doing burnouts, having mags and DOOF DOOF (i hate that "music") does not appeal to me as style. especially when mum and dad bought it for you. i admit i did not buy my car with my own cash, but i intend to pay back the person i borrowed the money from. i ahve, however, paid for basically evrything since (with a decent amount of help from dad!) including RWC, rego, repairs and parts...
I'm kent brockman, and that's my two cents.
PS what irks me the most is that writing/typing what you can't understand!
