Watching Nine News just now (I didnt catch the location, but it was in SE Qld?) and yet another funeral for someone who died in a car crash was "celebrated" by doing massive burnouts, at least 6 cars all on public roads, right in front of Police.
Police apparently didnt react... nor did they stop oncoming traffic??? At one stage a bus goes past with a car on the road doing a burnout... I mean what the hell???

I didn't see it but it sounds like these morons haven't learnt anything. I bet they were commodore bogans too. Don't get me wrong, I love a good burnout..but time & place people...

At my funeral, I'll be very disappointed if there isn't Chisel turned up to 11 playing as well as some nice big burnouts.
All legally, of course...........................

I wonder if bogans are self-aware. They must know in some way that it's grotesque and greatly inappropriate to leave Beam & Cola cans at crash sites and lay rubber at a funeral. Or are they really that feral?

Yes but what i dont understand is that a large number of police were present..
The didnt do anything to stop it... "Police were powerless to stop it" ??? I dont get it???? Surely if the Police allowed it , it would just continue at every other funeral without fear.

Seems like the Police stopped traffic to allow it to happen.

Footage showed a bus coming the other way while it was happening... and a few cars... Saw the man in the green fluro shirt toss something at one car. Pretty sad to watch actually

Shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but not too many rocket scientists in the crowd there by the looks of things.....
Mentality of the garden variety idiot really. Get killed doing dumb stuff then your simpleton worshippers celebrate by doing the same rubbish that got the subject person killed in the first place. Behold the Jim Beam generation......... |

That is too good!! Surely a nice tribute to those that would have appreciated it (the deceased)!
Good on the cops for not stopping them, slow controlled burnouts aren't going to hurt anyone, and even if it did, they know the "risks" so too bad. Nice pictures on boostcruising! |

Post 16 on Boost cruising is a classic.
'These guys doing burn outs know what they are doing', I bet the guys in the ground also thought they knew what they are doing And they wonder why modded cars get a bad image Here is hoping police will be knocking on doors with tow trucks and vehicle impound books soon |

RIP to phatty and brett.
For those that aren't aware these people where enthusiasts and well known around burnout comps. The boys were tragically killed in a car accident. Today was the funeral and this was bound to happen. A few tributes.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1rRvkXRfDM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6m4Da...feature=relmfu

Good on em, people need to get over the burnouts kill crap it's a bit of fun, oldies doing 50 kill more people than burnouts ever have.
If tyres don't get popped at my funeral I'd be disappointed. |
