Yeah the cops "THE HEAT" car. Its all funded by coppers own pockets. And they do all the work on it on weekends, seem like pretty decent fellas. Was it one of 'the heat' team that was giving your mate ****? Theres a thread on boostcruising.com about The Heat, clears up a few things like who funds it etc.

There is something you can do about it, Clean the race number off your car, Scrape the rubber from the guards and make sure the car has decent tyres on it. I raced heaps when I was up there and had a VERY distinct car which the coppers loved. I did as I said to do and they left me alone unless I was doin skids or racing etc. Darwin coppers are good, dont give em sh1t and they are ok. Now I just cant wait to get back up there at Xmas Oh and the T wharf area and TDZ arnt good places to go . . . East point used to be good years ago before they pine logged and speed humped the area
