and you wonder why you got banned from the spotted thread?

im sure if they add up all fines they hand out last nite they could come up with old factory or sumthing to cut loops on. n charge 1 dollar to watch n free to enter n make a killing. bcoz if i could go out n do burnouts n not have to keep looking in rear vision mirrior id deffently go

I have said this before, we need a nats type event ran once every month. To include more events than drags. Power cruze, go to whoa, burnouts blah blah blah. Chances of this ever happening, NEVER. When I win tattslotto ill put on a good event boys.....

isnt that what DragTag was for in the cambo factories. i never went to drag tag why did it get closed down

bloody oath cocopopz if i win tats too ill open factory n every1 cut lose. bcoz these sort of things will neva end u only hear about it bcoz there hundreds of ppl going but wat about the 5-10 mates that go do skids n no1 hears about it is bcoz there not heros.

I thought Drag tag was just burnouts and that simulator I know its run by Peter Gray, I saw him the other day. I think I should speak to him and find out what stoped him putting on a bigger show.

cuttin sick in the factory's is not as bad as main roads

it is when you have 200+ pedestrians dancing around your car..fair enough its at their own risk but its not the point, what about the affect on families etc when something does go wrong its to late, its all fun and games till someone gets hurt/killed then everyone jumps on the oh so sorry for the families RIP etc yet the same people are the ones doing the same stupid **** still, all for a couple of vn v6 single peggers bouncing off the limiter.. and then to jump in front of a camera on the news and carry on like a 12 year old kid gives the whole scene a great image dead set idiots....grow up and you wonder why you cant drive a modified car around without a jar of lube and a briefcase for your fine collection, theres your reasons. dragtag was closed to concentrate their business elsewhere, aka they found a better money maker, it was good while it lasted but still didnt have a 1/4 mile i mean who wants to strap there car to a dyno and thrash **** out of it like a computer game get realistic.

^^^^^^wot u said

Factorys are not a good idea on a large scale. Public liability is right out the window there. It is alright for between friends. Big event are expensive to set up and very involved. I would pay $150 plus a month for a nats type event.

$150 a month is a fair ask for half these people that are at these street events, half of them clearly cant even afford to get out to calder park or heathcote which in all honesty if you love the sport that much is not that much of a travel compared to the adelaide guys etc that come over here, and when they do attend they whinge about entry fee's etc welcome to the real world insurance/running costs are a bitch and we pay for it **** happens and get over it. most people know i use to be a regular at these northern sub events back in the days but i wont go anywhere near the things these days, wayy to overcrowded, underpowered and overexcited heroes, and the risks just arent worthit legally and morally.

i would enter for 150bukz for hole day at calder mayb could hire track out or sumthing n just go nuts. but the people at street events wouldnt enter becoz there cars cost that much n there not scared to bang them up alil. but y cant u just buy an old factory with plenty of room n just go for it like a skid pan n have sign enter at own risk.

Back in the days when I got my licence the outer eastern suburbs were a Fast and furious scene friday night {movie lame} all has changed now. We need events just one person can not go it alone and me personal would not know where to start.

Public liability...... and the laws surrounding this type of behaviour. To set up a event you need to tread extreamly carefully. We need a motor sport face ie. Peter Gray and a place "good mate Bob Jane" bang we have a event. Not this easy but the theme/idea is there.

at end of day nuthing will happen we all know that but atleast we gave it a shot. and they will neva stop these illgeal events they will b on hold for couple months but they will b bak

I'll let this thread continue if it's kept on topic and not promoting street racing. The reality is that it wont ever completely stop. There will always be tools going to it, generally 18-21 year olds to do skids in front of their mates. Unfortunately 300 people turn up, stand right next to the car and then the guy with no experience runs everyone over and kills them. Most people have been to them on here but most have grown out of it too and realised how dangerous it is and also how much trouble they can get in to. I remember back in the Dandy days where the police did 6 months of surveilance and then hammered everyone for everything - it's not worth it. There needs to be more events and that is why everyone is campaigning for a new track. Support easternats, support all of your local shows. Don't leave them ripping it up and giving everyone a bad image. Keep it on topic guys.

Yes, they didn't though howeverand waited until they could maximise the amount of fines and defects they handed out. Very poor form from Victoria Police aren't they meant to protect the public from danger or is potential revenue raising a higher priority than public safety? ill agree with this also piss poor effort from the police if it was under surveillance for that long, but its not the first time they have done it, they intervene on many occasions in between u know how it works everyone scatters to the next location and go again, they want to figure out how things work and hit people hard to try and get maximum affect, and revenue for the xmas party. **** happens we wont turn it into a cop slaying argument i hate the pricks just as much as anyone.
