He does piss a lot of people off if there is one person out there doing big skids then kicking a whole cruise session 1 lap in off the track who have waited hours just to get on. Saying that there is no were else around really that you can take a full car load out and drift the track sensibly. ^^^Basically this It takes one idiot that thinks the rules don't apply to him to ruin it for the whole cruise session. There were cars that decided to drop their guts halfway down a straight (I get that sometimes sh*t happens and things break) and as a result detours are made around it cutting off half the track resulting in far too many cars on the track at once. Understandably the Saturday was busiest out of the 4 day event and of the 6hrs possible cruise time I was lucky to do 1hr 30mins. Just my reasons for not going back. I'd go to watch, just not enter my car. Plenty of other events (torque time, hi octane, downshift) to attend throughout the year instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see your point, now. Surely that sort of thing has been happening for years (in terms of the on track antics) and it's only more recently that it has become "a problem" for the "rule enforcers"? Or am I way off base?

Events are always trying to be made "safer" and that usually ends up with the fun police coming out harder. As with all car events there are people around that want what you have, last years PC at QR a very tidy R34 was stolen on the last day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They pull the whole group off for one person being dumb but 99% of the time that person has a pit pass so they just line up and go out again and wreck it for the next group. The only people that hate power cruise don't have a pit pass lol. But you need to be a millionaire to get one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz097 Bronze Donating Members 1,752 Member For: 13y 5m 21d Posted 03/05/16 12:22 PM Share Posted 03/05/16 12:22 PM It's more to do with track damage I think. People get on the brake at low speed and start eating into the tar. The back hill of eastern creek looked like war zone sunday arvo And also the fact you can't see 2 feet in front of you cause of the smoke , yet you want to be part of the fun so your on the brake as well Hahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
