as said by GIANT on fast fours

"There have been over 3000 so far,

We definately have the numbers to skew the results.

I'm not FOR street racing but if the confiscation laws become tougher we will all lose out. BIG TIME.

Our public Perception is already pretty bad yet if these media outlets are now encouraging the Gov to take our cars away it will become more acceptable in the publics eye.

The driver is the one who should become the target not the car. I would be more in favour of chucking someone in Jail for 2 weeks rather than taking away the car.

I urge any enthusiast to VOTE NO in this poll regardless on waht you think of 'STREET RACERS' because in the PUBLICS EYE all of us enthusiasts who drive visually modified cars are STREET RACERS>"

if you get caught in NSW they tow your car then and there on the spot and put it in compound for 3 months and you need a very good argument to get it out.

as well as losing your car i don't think it's monetarily justifiable you end up paying for each day your car is in compound, the tow fee, the court fees, the lawyer fees PLUS the fines on top of that.

street racing is for heroes, and the only hero i know is Superman and no one here is him :evil:

p.s - my vote is yes

I think what Don is trying to say is that the focus should be placed on the DRIVER and not the CAR. Because once the car is branded as 'bad' then all our AESTHETICALLY done up cars are also going to be branded as 'bad'. And we will suffer under the media influenced public eye.

yes, in hindsight that's understandable but what our argument is, is street racing should NOT be done at all :!:

then if street racing wasn't carried out illegally, no ones cars would be "branded" as bad ...

if you choose to street race, and break the law then you should suffer the additional consequences of losing your car as well.
