ms700 Moderating Team 10,170 Member For: 21y 11m 5d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 04/01/04 10:49 AM Share Posted 04/01/04 10:49 AM There is at least 1 fully marked XR6T here in the ACT, it followed me along Adelaide Avenue last night. It is a manual, and it has a "boosted by WGR" sticker under the Turbo badge on the boot!Next question, who is WGR? Wayne Gardner Racing was the last person I knew of to use those initials....I think the XR8 that the Feds have has a identical sticker on it as well?VG!!! please explain!

The XR8 says 'boosted by APW' I believe. They are initials of coppers in the traffic branch (bit of fun on their part I think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Glove Team Blueprint Member 532 Member For: 21y 8m 25d Posted 04/01/04 11:01 PM Share Posted 04/01/04 11:01 PM ). But he was a bit arrogant about the whole thing.:sicFind one that isn't (arrogant).These cars are too good for the highway patrol A bit arrogant but u got the photos u were after ? The reason coppers can be very funny about getting their photos taken is that the photos virtually always end up getting modified and put on some news website or newspaper and completely misinterpreting a situation causing embarassment to both the coppers and their job. He is only being wise, not arrogant. Be thankful he let u take any pictures and waited while u did.Find one that isnt arrogant ? I'll find u 100, which is a damn side lower than the proportion of the arrogant drivers they have to deal with.Stabs at the coppers are becoming very boring. Thought this was a car site, not an obsession with anything to do with law enforcement one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antisocial Weird Member Member 1,347 Member For: 21y 11m 2d Location: ACT Posted 04/01/04 11:15 PM Share Posted 04/01/04 11:15 PM VG I think the majority of people here like the cops, and certianly, like to have them about when they have a proplem.Perhaps some times people vent thier spleen at the profession in general.It is only natural that you are offended when people slag your chosen profession, but rest assured 99.995% of use value your advice, comments and opinins. If it makes you feel better we winge about service managers and insurance companies for more thean we complain about you guys... Goose as for being arrogant if you asked to take a pic of my cool white T and I said,"sure just don't take any with me in" and you took one anyway I would get pissed too.

AMoffat Member 744 Member For: 22y 28d Posted 04/01/04 11:22 PM Share Posted 04/01/04 11:22 PM I'd agree, I'm not keen on being photographed at work either.The guy let's you take some photos, while he is working and gets called arrogant for his trouble. Not all forum members state their professions, whgo would you line up next? Air hostesses? They annoy me. Chefs? I hate Chefs. Cooking all that stuff no-one can pronounce. Laywers...
