Yep. Never speed in between and thru towns. Boot the fuck out of it thru the 80kmh and 100kmh twisty bits

Don't hold ur breath. I came to realise the members of this forum are usually older, more responsible and have kids. I've tried to invite a few of the younger guys before with no luck. The response I received from one guy was "I dont feel like writing my car off tonight".
This said person has an extensive build thread with 180kw atw....so I gave up

That's because this exact thing has happenend on one of your late night runs, if I'm not mistaken. :lol:

I think it also happened on the same route you've also proposed earlier in this thread.

The last one was a H6 sedan from memory.

Just because I have "an extensive build thread" doesn't mean I'm going to treat the road like my own private race track. I'm just not interested in doing night cruises because I think they are far too dangerous.

What do you think are dangerous about them? Animals? Cops?
At least you can see oncoming traffic's head lights

Drive within ur/ur car's limit, dont be a hero and u'll be fine. Being afraid to take ur car out just because it's dark (im using ur own words here keiran) is just pathetic :)

And I still have a lot of trouble understanding why u would even bother modding and spending so much time if ur not gonna ever drive it like it should be driven? Why not leave it stock? Or buy a hyundai? Each to their own I guess, thats why I haven't queried this up until now

I did..because whatever answer u could give me wouldn't be able to satisfy my confusion anyway. Perhaps one day I'll see u at a 'private race track'. That'll really make my day.
