FKN Commodore Hoons!

[shaggerz]

So here I am, parked in my driveway, replacing the coolant in my car (it was brown) when 3 commodores come tearing up my street (dark blue VL, white VR/VS with altezza tail lights and pioneer sticker on boot) and another I can't recall, first one stops on the corner outside my house, rips a massive burnout while the vr/vs drives up with some C#$K kid hanging out the back window with a camera, lots of cheering and "i'm so fantastic" noises being made, then they tear off down the street only to repeat the process on every corner at least 4 or 5 times until they were out of earshot...

Not 60 seconds later, a police car rolls up the street, stopping abruptly in front of my house. The guy in the passenger seat is discussing with the driver while they both give me the once over, obviously painting me fluorescent pink with the "young hoon with commodore" brush.

They sit there for a minute in an attempt to work out whether I was the culprit or not, then, given that my car is up on axle stands, they decided it probably wasnt me, and head off in the direction of the screeching tyre noises...

Now... *takes deep breath*

If you happen to be on here, mister I'm a fkn moron high school kid, mr white VR/VS with Altezza lights and pioneer sticker, I KNOW you live in my street because every day at about the time school finishes I get to hear DOOF DOOF from miles away and every time you leave your house I get to know about it since you RIP IT down the street every time without fail.

I'm TIRED, and I'm sure others are also, of having to DEFEND the CAR ENTHUSIAST such as the majority of those who grace these forums, to the rest of the known universe, as a direct result of 20 pensioners in my street, witnessing, hearing, or smelling at least four high school age D@#KHEADS all proudly sporting SHINY COMMODORES absolutely SHATTER any good faith that may have been built up by the last 200 commodores they witnessed driving RESPONSIBLY...

GROW THE F@#K UP you childish fools, and stop RUINING it for the rest of us.

EDIT: ohhh and by the way... your cars were all pretty obviously standard, except for ur RICE enhancements, and not even DECENT standard cars, so you are FAR from "enthusiasts"... just plain old HOONS

[minux]

Get their rego's, call the police, tell them how day after day they do this. Amazing what happens when the police see them and they get pulled over, but i feel your pain, we had those hoons around my area not too long ago, they would do at least 70 in a street that should be 40(its currently 50) so i called my brother-in-law, he set up just off the corner where they come flying around, got them all for speeding over the limit by at least 20, defected cars the lot. Since that i havent heard much from them.

[sganro]

I know what you mean. There is a house full of youngish blokes down the road from me, and i dont think i have ever seen them take off without making heaps of noise and commotion in their "awesome, hotted up" commodores. The cops were out this way the other day, hopefully they came across this bunch of d*#$heads

[stylin_vr2]

oh i so no ur pain... i live on a corner but 4 houses up theres a t intersection so i cop ppl burnin rubber outside my house and bootin the crap out of it due 2 the intersection... its like HELLO theres a PRIMARY SCHOOL down the road!!! stupid hoons..

[Infus10n]

On a rainy day i can guarantee some hoons will be out drifting the 2 lane roundabout outfront my place (i can see it from our balcony). Its the worst on weekends but you hear atleast 1 person drfit it daily.

[craigvk]

I live in a street where the next door neighbours bring their flickhead mates around who have a vn, vs and a statesman. Burnouts and bullshit happen all the time. It got to the stage that many neighbours got so pissed off that we got ourselves a case manager from the cop shop and held a street meeting but without the turkey house invited of course. It's not the car that's the problem. It's because of young teenage "P" plate punks driving commos. They go down my street and turn up the street and drop it into first and then second and then do skids. One idiot the other day came around my bend in a vn and decided to to a slider. I know everyone when young does stupid things but young drivers these days go beyond the limit by a mile.

As far as I see it, there is a time and place for everything. My street has a lot of families and young kids and it's the wrong place. Heck, there is nothing wrong with burnouts or bullshit but it's where you do it that is all the difference. Quiet built up streets isn't one of them.

[azkwazere]

Damn some people are wankers... arg so mad

aZk.

[crazyspoon05]

We've got d$%@heads around our area as well, funniest thing I saw for a while was one of them wreck the front end of his car by hitting a traffic island and launching into the planter box contained on the island

Sweet justice IMO

[JBDrifter]

There's d!ckheads everywhere... you can't avoid them these days. Just the other day I saw the aftermath of a pretty bad accident.... a VT Commy driver. He'd somehow ended up on the wrong side of the road taking out a few sign poles, hitting a light pole side on then hitting some more sign poles before coming to a stop, facing sideways, front wheels on the road rears on the nature strip. The ambo's were there working on him in the back of the ambo, I don't think he was in a good way.
It was very early in the morning though, about 4:30am so I wonder whether he fell asleep behind the wheel.... but if he was in fact being an idiot, then it just goes to show where that stupid behaviour will get you.

[Sabby]

I know how you feel mate.
I live right near a 5 way intersection. Everynight i here at least 3 cars revving there engines and hearing the screech from a burnout. This is all hours of the morning. I went up to the intersection the other night, and waited at 12 until 1 and then I saw 2cars line up, the ripped a massive burnout and one of them lost control and scraped the F*** outa his VX commy. All the side was ripped up, and both the left tires were gone.
I laughed and walked home.

[shaggerz]

My street is pretty much covered in tyre marks... and they do also do this at all hours... woken at 2am once for this crap... I start work at 5.30am dammit I don't need that crap.

What annoys me far more than their activities though is that as a direct result of the actions of these few punks and others around, everyone automatically labels me with that lovely "young hoon" title... It angers me so much that they see me, that I am young, and find out I drive a commodore, then immediately get mental pictures of me acting like a complete tool in my car just because they have seen others do it. And furthermore, it is these f@#knuts fault that my insurance costs $1400 a year for a $9000 car, whereas my boss drives a $60,000 subaru and his is $300. This is despite the fact that my boss has had countless speeding fines and DUI on more than one occasion, yet I have never had a single fine or even been pulled over. I got a parking ticket once and THATS IT... but still.. Under 25? ohhhh that'll be your life savings, and one of your arms please...!

HOONS ARE COSTING US CAR ENTHUSIASTS REAL MONEY

and I love my money... hence wanting to STAB THEIR EYES OUT WITH A FORK!

Next time I see that damn white vr/vs I will get the plate and report the sod.

[AirStrike]

Yeah mate we have it here to. I'll be the first to admit being a dick on the roads, but never in residential streets like these clown. The ones up the top of the street are worse, two of them are on L plates and reverse out of there driveways rip a burnout (single spinner stock VL's of course) and the back up the driveway. My old man said something and the stupid scum of the earth mother said, 'its either that or he drives it somewhere else and does it, at least this way I know where he is'. If I did that the old man would of footed my ass so hard I wouldn't be able to shit right for a month due to the fact he had caved my ass cheeks in.
I also get the 'tared with the hoon' brush here. Me and my mate were out the front the other day and the cops pull up out the front and ask my mate, 'whats with the stockies all round, going to do some wheelies are we'?
I mean what the hell, we cant all afford rims..............
So I have taken to (as the officer said to) taking a log of there activities. He mentioned something along the lines of if enough people provide the same times and regos they can use it as evidence. Just do the same mate, take down the rego and the times for a week and pass it on to the cops.
HAPPY HUNTING!!

i was washing my car at a happywash around the corner from me, then come home and chamois her down in my driveway with the roller door up. This same tool in his fully hektik vn stocko commo sees me in my driveway so he just sits there right in front of me stoking it up arm out the window thinkin hes in a summernats burnout comp. Im gettin his rego next time, i know where he lives.

[brohawk]

i hear you shaggers im a young guy on my ps with a low loud commie and i get stared at all the time coz ppl are just waiting for me to do sumfin stupid. little do they know i am very polite on the roads if sumone turns out of a side st infront of me ill back off a lil and same if some one changes lanes, or ill give way to ppl wen im not supposed to just to be nice. i have worked to long and to hard and spent to much money on my car to get defected or worse have it written off by sum stupid wanker who cant driver theres. i start work at 5 most morings so wen i leave my car is a lil loud wen i start it but i drive own the quite side street at idle so i dnt wake any of the older ppl up that live in the st. and i dnt chop the acc either beacuse it is so eary in the morning, and he same goes for if i come in any later than 9 ill roll down the st to be as quiet as possible. but during the day i drive normally i dnt hoon down the rd but i dnt drive at 10k either ill get to 40 n then just take my foot off the acc. im so sick of ppl weather they be cops or just older ppl looking at me and going ohhh yer male p plater in a hotted up commie he must be doing sumfin stupid.

the main arterial rd i live on has a stop sign at one end with an intersection then is a straight run until it bends off a lil and joins back to a main road, and what do u think all these young hoons do at 10, 11, 12 o clock at night decide to see what speed there cars can get up to before they have to break. or hey will race one another

[GLD-086]

I always hear the sound of busted ass, crappy V6 Commos going past at full noise on the highway, where I live.

Just knobheads with nothing to do. Even though my street is made up of mostly Commodores, not one person hoons up my street in one.

[Bax]

I don't know if you guys have seen the automatic bollards that are used to fence off areas and the like for tolls etc. And can withstand a hit from a truck, I'd love to place these at the end of my street. I'd settle for remotely activated spike strips.

[Mr Squishi]

All the hoons used to sit just down the road from where I live and drink all day in the summer. Next to a 'no drinking: fine $200' sign. Then they would drive home doing wheelies, absolutely wasted. The cops knew this happened, they would drive past the drunk hoons, ignoring them. None ever got fined, DUI'ed, or pulled over. Go figure.
And I'd bet money that a few of their cars wouldn't have been roadworthy.

[padrickz88]

psssssh! i dont know why people give there car a beatin all the time, ill admit i do it sometimes but not every second im in the car, o well just give there rego in and it should be right

[VSSPak]

if u got a cam recorder, cam the ****ers, making sure u get the number plates and all that shiznit in it, then take the tape down to the cops, guaranteed it'll **** them over..

I know it means you gotta the effort to record it, take it down to the cops ETC ETC whatever else may come with it..but guarantee itll be a stop to it

Good luck with those ****ers

[shaggerz]

my front window is in the perfect place to set up a webcam with some surveillance software to view the street properly. I'll get the bastards

[Cane_It]

i reckon every street has 'em,
get this though, I leave for work around 5:15am every morning, my V8 is loud and angry, i idle it though the side streets as gently as i can to keep the noise down. well one morning i had to get some money out at the atm at the local shops and this old bloke comes up just as id finished at the atm and says "is that your car?" pointing, now i'm thinking here we go the old farts are gonna complain about it.... he says "we hear it every morning and reckon you must be the most sedate driver in the neighbourhood, is that because you know its loud and dont wanna wake anyone?" I'm thinking theres a surprise, he asks if its a 308 and what its had done, that was a moment of the most unexpected.

theres some dudes up the end of the road that doof doof and flog the arses out of VC and VH commos down our street.

another time i was heading down a mainroad testdriving the new carby and pulled over, waited for a clear spot then took off firmly then gave it full noise, some woman from an oncomming car nearly got whiplash looking at me as we passed, where else could i do it? cops and society in generaly would view it as hooning, but it was a one off thing of making sure the thing was set up right,...

[craigvk]

Yeah, Cane_It, just making sure the open throttle works like it should Good stories.

[Christina]

oh man, crazy hoons... as previous posts have said, get their rego, if possible.

[sircruisealotVS]

i feel your pain. i cop all sort of crap where i live and its a "good part of town" in comparison to other areas of logan.
every thurs,fri and sat night there are morons going up and down the street next to my house (i live on the corner of two streets, one being a fairly busy street for the burbs) doing stupid things, like ripping donuts around the round about on the corner,etc..
i also cop the doof doof going past at crazy hours, im usually awake as i work funny hours, but its 4am! turn down your f*cking stereo and subs!!
another thing our street is subject to is these young pricks thinking its lots of fun to pull up next to the bins when they're out on bin night...grab the handle and pull it along side their car for a couple of hundred metres then let it go sending rubbish everywhere and destroying the wheelie bin.
i got fed up with it one night when i heard them coming down the road with a bin (screaming and laughing and carrying on) so i quickly ran out the front and gave them an earfull, naturally they sped off...but my main aim was to get a look at the rego, called it into the local cop shop and they sent out a car to the registered owners house for a visit the next day.
im sure their parents would have been happy to have the cops show up to have a chat with little junior son-of-a-bitch...they havent been seen doing it since.

[shaggerz]

nice story sircruise lol that'll show em... oddly enough I havent seen this particular group of cars since so I reckon that cop car that was cruising up the street may have caught up with them hehe.
