So I wasn't guessing his reasoning for posting, I knew why he was posting it, and was just trying to lead you guys in the right direction.

Still no idea why you over reacted like that, I was just trying to let you know?

Like I said in the PM's, all you need is 7kW to be over the limit.
There are cops out there who know a hell of a lot about cars, believe me....ask BennyGSR about Jason, he can rattle off the kerb weight and flywheel kw for most production cars.


Yeah cheers for the inform. My bad i misinterpreted what you where trying to do.

No problem, the likelihood of you actually getting pulled up for it is one in a million, I was just letting you know.
Realistically are you actually hurting anyone by being slightly above that 125kw/Tonne rule? No.
But that's just the way the rules are unfortunately......quite interesting a couple of studies I was reading which showed no correlation between high powered vehicles for young drivers being involved in more serious accidents than regular cars. When they brought in the 125kW/Tonne rule, accidents decreased by 2%, the same as it had the year before without the kW/Tonne rule....it's just cars/roads becoming safer. Road toll will never be 0 unless we remove the biggest cause of accidents, HUMANS.
Pretty much it's just the government trying to grab some votes, all the old people hating on P platers.

P plates in themselves are a ridiculous concept in my opinion and I'm completely against them, they only serve two purposes. To let cops target you more easily, and to allow the few idiot P platers to identify other P platers and have an EGO-off to see who's dick is smallest by driving as stupidly as they can.
I would like someone to show an actual reason for P plates to be necessary. Hint: if you go anywhere near the 'dangerous driver' area, why don't old people have to show senior plates. :wink:

Some of our worst serial hoons are over 65! Recent female pensioner openly admitted to regaular speeds in excess of 140 kph. One of our worst males (I think he was also over 70) was clocked above 160 kph. Both of these are regular country drivers. So why do we not introduce a C plate ??? :lol:
