Feel tough challenging people on bikes? LOL.

Anyway Hemi Power the whole scene is screwed anyway because anyone with a modified car is automatically labeled a hoon by authorities, weather its legal or not.

Anyone been out driving on a friday night lately, basically the cops are putting everything off the road because "they suspect its unroadworthy" because its modified.

But you can thank yourself, myself, every other person whos ever ripped a skid in a public place for car enthusiasts with modified cars being labled hoons.

The scenes stuffed, soon you will be using your bog stock kia preigo van to tow your car to a show and back and only driving will be on the track.

Mate, are you for real???

In this day and age, with cars being taken for Hoon laws, people need to use their noggin a bit and do "skids" at the appropriate venue. Its stupid behavior that got the laws brought in to start with. Anyone with a nice tidy car that goes on a cruise is now treated as guilty until proven innocent when pulled up by the police, all because idiots need to prove that "Real Men Smoke Eagers!"

I have been to that event last 8years(barring 1 year that it was called of)
and every year there are burnouts no matter what.
And in that yes i have seen memebers on here do it as well.
I think that we are going a bit overboard with some of the comments.
Sorry but everyone does them from time to time . Just some are not smart enough to do them in a appropriate area.

If the skids are so prevalent and the punters seem to want to see it, why not incorporate it into the day somehow, setup a skidpan do it properly. That way those that want to see that stuff can come and watch those that want to do it. If you ask me tyres are too expensive for that.
