Default Black AU XR8 Sedan- Dob in a ********....

Hey Guys!

I'm sure your a club who promotes safe and responsible driving practices on busy roads, so what I am hoping to do is "name and shame" a particular member of ur club.


He drives an Black AU XR8 Sedan, with the standard 17" 5 spokes and parks on the Blaxland Road side of Campbelltown Station. Everyday he feels the need to do a big burnout in the dirt, covering a few dozen people in dust, not to mention the cars. He then likes to get sideways at the roundabout, and with a busy foot path next to it, I don't care how good a driver he is, it's only a matter of time before something goes wrong.


His XR8 is pretty rough looking atm, with chips and putty dotting the front bar. He's got a big 2 line FPV Tickford club of NSW sticker on the back.


Anyways, he usually leave Campbelltown about 6 o'clock. If anyone thinks they know who he is, please tell him to pull his head out his ****, if he wants to do burnouts, there's plenty of indutrial estates around!



Thanks guys!

We will look into it and if it one of ours we will set him straight. Not sure if we have one the club that fits that description and resides in the area you are talking about.

Lucky mine's blue, lol.

Good work stumpy! This guy definitely needs his head pulled in - might be worth dropping a complaint to the local police station and tell them what time etc to watch the guy do his stuff. They may just catch up with him on a slow day.

No, it not a club member car. He has some how gotten hold of one of our club sticker & has put it on the car. I see it driving around my area form time to time. If i see him i'll tell him to remove the sticker from his car.

Thanks for that. I think he might be a member here tho, because since my post, he hasn't done it once....

Where are you from mate?

Sorry, I did not mean to bring any negative press on the club. I will remove the sticker (eventually) as I am no longer a member.

Points of clarification:
Its not everyday (or close to it).
I do like to give it a bit on the dirt/grass (who doesn't?!). Not done in the afternoons with people around.
Stopped when I put new tyres on the car (the round about at least).
On the round about, only done when there are no people on the path.
and theres no putty on the car :P

Well mate, there is obviously at least a couple of people, but that's not the point. You've covered me dust on more than one occasion, and at the time, it had happened 4 days in a row.


There's a time and a place for everything, There's plenty of other dirt you can do rip up, that won't be covering other people's pride and joy in dirt, you obviously don't care, but others do.


Must admit, I agree that you have stopped of late, and I thank you for it.


As for the putty, wats the grey stuff on the ends of ur front bar then?! :P


On a positive, apart from the front bar, she is a beautiful looking car, IMO needs to be treated with a lil more respect, if u wanna drive a car like that, go buy a VN or VP and you'll right in mate!

regardless of the emotions here, Tickford if you are no longer a member, please remove the sticker.


We are done now.


Cheers
