a burp is not an answer
My 2 cents: Channel 7/Today Tonight (especially)are a bunch of story mongering aids filled ass bandits. Watching there show at all makes me want to gorge my eyes out due to the fact they preach utter garbage to the general (and ill add inadequately educated) public.
Now I am new to antilag and I haven't been on any cruises yet (Because im driving a Subaru 2L n/a and TJ would probably rip me a new one) but more to the point that it seems the 'Hoon' stereo type seems to get tarred on many enthusiasts or anyone who seems to want to own anything other than a hybrid Camry.
I believe that the old saying ' People will only remember one bad incident rather than the 50 other positive ones' but I don't recommend the club lies down about this. Perhaps someone get in contact with the chaser boys? See if they aren’t willing to use the different media reporting skills?
May as well make a documentary.

I was planning on doing a doco once called "define hoon"
SBS would possibly be interested...or there's the new public access channel?
I have a mate who's working on a TV series on the car scene actually so maybe he'll address it?
Other than that, I'm keen for a youtube remix of the channel 7 report![]()
4 pages and all that has been posted are a bunch of tough man comments.
If antilag has an ABN then the owner of that ABN needs to WRITE to the complaint office and lodge a WRITTEN complaint, along with possibly a WRITTEN letter of demand asking for a PUBLIC apology.
Asking a couple of questions to a legal aid officer only costs $20 or so.. DO IT!!!
No business on the planet would bend over and accept public defamation like that, and neither should the person who holds the Antilag ABN.
The most useless thing one can do is simply winge about it on a public forum... as NO ONE WILL CARE what a bunch of people think on the internet, simply posting here WILL NOT SOLVE ANYTHING AT ALL. 99.999999999999% of the million or so people who saw that aired will never even know that this forum exists.
Its their job to change the views of people since every house has a TV it does change alot of peoples mind.
They arent stupid they know burnouts are harmless all it is is to get the public behind the laws and saying "yeah thats a good law" so the government can tax people with out the whole population standing up to the law.
Why would the population stand up to the law if the person being accused won't bother standing up to that law?
Because the population is for the law so whats 1 person going to mean to them...? the person getting smacked by the law just see's no use since it has a terrible name and hype worse than people who bash old ladies. just a fucking hoon right.
Personally, I think the justice and legal system in this country is pathetic.

This also happened in the Great Southern,

I Almost had you
.9 of a car???
/facepalm
Look, i am pretty new to this site but im still a member of it.
This is just a typical strive for a 5 minute filler on 7 news. Media has a tendency to blow even minor things WAY out of proportion... Im only 16, but i know that the media can be deadly.
For antilag... it has proved lethal.
How so? I saw it as free advertising. Those that care and/or understand the true intentions of AL knew that the report was all baloney, and those that look down upon us aren't "worthy of our time" anyway.
When you think that the web address was strewn all thru the report, your average Joe will go "hey, I got me that internet thingo, I'll check this out", only to be met with the very retort that is on the front page. There is always 2 sides to a story, and unfortunately AL doesn't have the same coverage as Ch7 to get the other side out there.
Realistically, if anything, it may have made the club that little stronger...
