It's interesting to know how stringent the laws are though, because it's been raining lately up here, and in the ED, if you accelerate slightly around the corner, it just gets sideways, or if you are on a hill and you start off from the lights, you just sit and spin without moving, due to the 3.08:1 open diff. Would the cops nab you for your wheels losing traction accidentally in the rain? But the stats are fairly interesting. I wouldn't say that all of the "hooning" was burnouts though, surely there would be street racing, drags, speeding and whatnot.

If you can't 'slightly' accelerate through a corner in the wet or take off from a hill without doing a stand still you must be doing one of the following A. You have 300rwkw B. You have crap, bald or china spec tyres C. Stop being a fool in the wet D. See above Last edited by fairmont1998; 17-06-2007 at 08:36 PM. Reason: Don't evade the swear filter |

A. I'd say the damn thing has about 90rwkw...
B. These are 500km old Goodyear Regatta GAs. 205/60R/15. C. I'm not sure what the deal is, but the first 25% of the accelerator is very sensitive, then the next 50% does nothing, and the last 25% makes it boogie. That's essentially why throttle control goes out the window in the wet. We used to have an old ED Futura with a 2.5" Catback, otherwise stock, and it did not do this, the accelerator had a much smoother action. It's not like this thing is powerful though, it's a 4 speed, and it's only ever been floored once in all the time we have had it, and when we did, we couldn't see anything in the rear vision mirror... through the smoke. :P Hrm... must be C.

Or we could invite Today Tonight along to a meet to show them that Car clubs are not about hooning, and that the majority of P plate drivers are not Hoons, you could then plow Anna at the meet Dave

$1000 and loss of a shagged EB is a small price to pay for plugging Anna Coren. I'm in.
