Default Doing Laps

Lately in brisbane iv been attending uni late at night only on the walk back to the train station to find people constantly doing laps. Every set of lights I come up to its the same honda or subaru just doing laps around the block. This is on a wednesday/thursday night so I can't understand why they are doing it at like 9-11pm at night. You also get the old hilux with chrome lights, huge chrome bumper, lowered 1mm from the ground and the chrome wheels.. stero of course.

I can't understand why its happening, im guessing they want to race someone but there is nobody on the streets. The worst iv had so far was a subaru that would go up to the lights to turn, when the green arrow went for people to walk across the road his front bumper was pratically 1mm away from people walking, he was reving it up big time to get some attention then in the smallest gap he would just dump the clutch and rev of up the street blow off valve and all.

Now I find these are mostly japenese drivers most of the aussies are in the hilux's.. why people like those cars i don't know.

Anyone know what the go is with these people? Maybe they should get a taxi sign for their roof an earn some cash while doing it.
