Channel 7 came along and recorded for about an hour to do an article on how not all enthusiests are Hoons.

I think you'll find it will be a story about enthusiasts doing the right thing. That is doing illegal stuff in the right places...
Post up a vid if you can Mick, I'll be watching tonight...

knowing the media... they will turn it around and play it backwards with snippets of you guys sayinghow much you like to go sideways and drift etc... then stand out in a public road and crap on about hoons...

Let's give them the benefit of the doubt, & wait & see their end article before drawing the daggers, and automatically assuming the worst.
DOing things the right way is just as an important message(arguably moreso) as stop being a hoon & risking lives out on the streets. |

Please record it, i dont think we'll get it in Melbourne? Would be good to see some nice cars getting around
 oh and of course i agree with the media that every person who drives a nice car is a "HOON", will be good to see

Not sure if anyone caught it or not but for once the media did a great job, i have it recorded,
TV reception was **** but hopefully it turns out ok... my car featured in the background waiting to have a go coz they didnt want cars going whilst they did interviews. |
