Bridal Party Burnouts

WHYME · 28-03-2015, 07:43 PM

Well folks, it's been a while since we've seen a hoon report on a current affair, and it seems like they finally found a new story to report on which just has to be aired on TV. That's right - ripping a burnout maaaate, straya c**t! It seems like doing a burnout in Australia, is worse than murder.

I'll let you watch the video so you can make up your own minds, what are your thoughts on ripping a burnout at a wedding to celebrate? Link below:

wedding skids go good

If I was old matey with the flash sunnies, Id be more worried that their drug dealing front has been busted...

Time and place for everything but those ******* should lose their cars and licences. Did you see the young boy standing on the road. I bet the neighbours have all been intimidated to say nothing.

Apart from the danger... wow classy to stand in the middle of a cul-de-sac and have a Skyline drift around you, mmm style and good taste but thats only my opinion. Had it been on a track I'd say well each to their own but good on them if they like it, but in suburbia- losers!

I know there's a time and a place for these sorts of things, but it's funny the way they talk about it, and make it sound like it's worse than murder. Also, I bet in 95% of these burnouts no one gets hurt.

Modern Australia has lost the plot. Bring back the 60s and 70s with real politicians, real policemen, and outside of suburbia and major cities you could drive however fast you want and it was single carriageway. Would give up anything for a modern re-enactment of HO up the hume in the last XR8 or last of the GT without getting the car impounded and being put in maximum security cell for it..

Been to lots of weddings. Never been to a burnout one.

I agree with this sentiment, driving just ain't fun anymore but that wedding party are a bunch of boneheads.

I love the carefully orchestrated reporting designed to generate the howls of outrage and disgust, also to provoke an extreme over reaction from the nanny state operatives. These boneheads will be hunted down and made examples of, you can be sure of that.

Just remember that 3 or 4 times the amount of people died on the roads then as compared to now. That does not sound like 'Australia has lost the plot'. Does anybody remember the Campaign 550 in the early 80s? That's what the target was to decrease the road toll in Queensland to...

PS: Could posters please refrain from presenting populist/self opinionated sentiment as some sort of yardstick to measure reality by...

As some one who lives outside of suburbia let me just say we love nothing more than watching some ******* idiot cut a sick skid at the intersection out the front of our house.

We're at the point where I wont let my kids ride around to their friends place on their pushies (was a right of passage in the 70's/80's because I don't want one of these ****s hitting one of my kids

The best thing in resent history though was a few weeks ago when my mum rang me to ask me to install a new letter box after some rocket scientist was going too fast down her street (also rural and outside suburbia) the guy hit the shoulder then the small embankment then the letter box my dad built and installed 3 weeks before he died. this Mensa applicant hit it with such force it ripped the front strut out of the car and put the rest of the letter box through his window.

I suppose back in the 60's and 70's he wouldn't have had air bags and laminated windscreens to protect him

This guy didn't get his car impounded mum didn't even call the cops, she figured if this idiot didn't learn from totaling his car on a letter box a fine from the cops wouldn't do it.

Personally I think part of the problem is back then you had to work hard to buy a car, even harder to buy a fast car, now every dick head can get finance on a **** box that will rip a skid, and when they **** that they just get another one

You know...I think you might be onto something.

Many years back, we held in awe the guys in town who'd spent a fortune on cars that actually had power and could really go. The rest of us plebs had low powered cars that might be able to chirp the wheels if we really tried (and if the diff didn't let go). Our cars weren't fast, they weren't powerful, and they weren't very flash. Even the ones of us who had nice looking cars usually couldn't afford to spend much on what was under the bonnet to make it go faster...unless chrome counts.

Now, even a lot of four cylinder cars have power to shame V8's of days gone by. V8's are putting out power levels now that hyper-expensive supercars of years past could only dream of. Christ, the last ESP Ford with the legendary 351 only barely put out 140-odd kw.

Given the cheap second hand prices of some cars...even performance V8's of ten to fifteen years ago...young guys can now purchase a car easily on even basic finance which would outperform any of the legendary supercars Australian makers have wheeled out of the factory, with performance levels that would have been simply unobtainable "back in the old days" no matter how much money we had.

Basically, it's easier and cheaper to be a truly dangerous hoon than ever before...

How have they done this? They have simply pointed out how dangerous this stupidity is...

Would you let your wife be encircled by an idiot in a one and a half tonne missile?

Probably not on the day but 30 years later most likely

Only 95%, awesome.

Does a tree that falls in the forest make a noise if no one is there to hear it?

CoupeKing · 28-03-2015, 08:37 PM

I clicked on link and saw Tracy Grimshaw, then I closed it. She's about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

STINKY NINJA · 28-03-2015, 08:39 PM

I think based on that clip it's more like hectic bro!

last fairlane · 28-03-2015, 09:57 PM

I saw that clip about 3 months ago on here
minus the talking heads of the cop and all the
whinging about the danger
also they talked about the helicopter

Its stupid, its as bogan as it gets. But if the hillbillies want the most bogan wedding possible then its their right too.

As long as they pay for their own medical expenses (not taxpayers) when their idiocy goes wrong...

Exactly. "Time and place" tosspots...everyone likes a little fun, but suburban streets aren't the "place"...

Back around 2000 there used to be a bloke who did burnouts quite regularly on the corner outside our house when we lived in Bundy...all hours of the day and night, no thought to who was around, kids on bikes, whatever. Police were called a few times by various neighbours...us included when he nearly hit our son riding home from school one afternoon...but this was the days before "hoon laws" so he didn't lose his car.
Then it turned out he lived just down the road, and left his car parked on a sloping dirt driveway each night. By the road. Where anyone could, for example, creep down there at 2am and jam several large nails in front of and behind all four tyres. Just sayin'. It was tragic when it happened. No idea who did it either. *cough*...

He ended up as he deserved about a month later...he lost control and went over a rather deep gutter at full throttle and through someones fence, stopping inches from the house. Nearly tore the front wheels clean off the VS Commodore and did a hell of a lot of damage underneath by the amount of oil and auto trans fluid everywhere. He wasn't hurt...badly...but it was just lucky he didn't clean someone up.

I dunno, drifting is a sport.. circuit racing is a sport.. You can do either on a race track or on the road.. there are professionals in each and there are wanna be's in each. clearly the ones at that wedding were not wanna be's.. that dude in the car park who did a hand brake turn is just a douche, but he falls in the wanna be's category.
more people get killed everyday from inexperience wanna be's who don't know if they wanna be a racer or a drifter. anyway, the key here is knowledge and experience. if the government did more to teach people about controlling an out of control car, that would go a loooooooong way..

What about the lose control factor or blown tyre factor? The unknown consequences are the ones that damage. Even 'professionals' must answer to the law and I'm not sure professionals would do that on a public road...

These days you can die while playing cricket, really anything you do you can die from if you look at it that way.. I never said they are pro's, they just know how to handle a car.

Ask any of my year 11/12 Automotive students and they'll tell you that they know how to 'handle a car'. Does not mean they can...

Dying from playing cricket or other activities is so rare that it pales into insignificance compared to injury and deaths by people who know how to 'handle a car'...
