Go crazy all you like there. Is saying that, after the death of a participant at summernats on Thursday I think a lot of events will get a shake up. Public liability premiums will go up and stricter rules will eventually ruin the events we all love. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever been to summernats keef? Youtube tuff st summernats. Hours of footage. It's insane to be standing inches away from a 1000 hp alcohol sucking v8, then they crack it. That kinda thing will end up stopping I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mention that there aren't repeat offenders and that shows that the penalties are working as a punishment. What it also shows to me is that the current laws and penalties are not working as a deterrent. I think we should be tough on the offenses that have the potential to kill people. Perhaps a 90 day impound and a 12 month loss of license with over $5k of mandatory fines for a first offense, for example, may seem harsh but I think that would be a sufficient deterrent to prevent people from risking my life and yours. On the topic of racing events imo sh*t happens. You knew what you signed up for. Despite waivers there is legal recourse in some circumstance such as assault and personal/criminal negligence etc if it can be proven.

I think it was about a hundred bucks. If you don't own one then go out and get one asap. It pretty much cooks stuff 5 times faster than a pan or pot. There are so many recipes online, they are simple af and taste delicious! It brings batchelor food to a whole new level. Bolognese, stews, soups, chicken legs or tittays, lamb casserole the list goes on. I've even made what I like to call, "hotdog chicken". It has a couple of chicken breasts, American mustard, sweet chilli sauce, tomato sauce, a little bit of nandos medium peri peri and some honey. That should go well with quality pan sealed snags or chorizo instead of chicken. Tl;dr buy a pressure cooker and reap the rewards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
