No way I just saw what I did today in Epping Mon, 09 February 2004 13:19 Go to next message
So I turn onto Beecroft rd going up toward the bridge and there is a SUMP in the middle of the road.. i had no idea what it was till I followed this black river of fluid to this nice new VW golf over on the side of the road with oil pouring out the bottom.

it was all lowered and big wheels and stuff

was SO crazy. Had to be oil 'cause it was black as anything and what other piece of metal is bucket shaped.

I don't know WHAT was going on but I could not belive my eyes..

so yeah.. that's my story.. anyone else seen some crazy stuff like that recently?

I saw 4 guys pushing an early Magna across an intersection last year - with flames and smoke pouring out the bonnet! I was driving in the opposite direction, and didn't get far when I saw the fire truck heading in their direction! Why would you stand behind the fuel tank of a burning car and push it down the road???? Rolling Eyes

No way the fire could burn down the fuel lines?

I saw some lady the other day with smoke coming out the bonnet, we followed her for about 15 mins, it seemed like she had no idea what was happening, then eventually the engine conked out and she stopped and we just drove past

I know it's unikely.. but why risk it for a Magna! There was a lot of smoke and flames shooting out the engine bay, they're just lucky no-one opened the bonnet.

It made me think that I should have a fire extinguisher in the car though - because without one you just have to stand there like a wally watching the car burn!

was out cruising with a mate a few months before xmas. Came around this corner and there was a pod style air filter lying in the gutter Laughing
The other night out doin the local laps thing (bored outa brain) anyways some guys decided it'd be fun to dump some oil, after about 20/30 minutes of people having fun, this farm ute decides to have some fun and get majorly sideways........ only for a car behind him to chuck on the disco lights Laughing OWNED!!!!
1 hour later and a different location some more oil was dumped, one of the local rolla boys further up the road decided to do the maccas trey action, only for a cop to roll past just as he was about it start. Cop rolls past while the rolla's parked on the treys, lucky for him the cop didnt' notice and kept driving Shocked

around this time last year i had some dude in an RX3 turbo trying to race me/

i didnt bother because i knew id get a flogging. so this dude kicks it down a gear and give it hell...

hes about 6 car lengths in front when his exhaust tip falls off and starts bouncing down the road toward me at a decent speed...

luckly i dodged it coz i reckon it could have put a nasty crack in the windscreen!!!

oh and i say a van driving down some road only to have his front left wheel fall off!! Laughing Laughing

was cruising with 2 mates tonight. the roads a 2 lane same way street (one way and other side of buildings goes other way). anyways were cruising along and all of a suddon theres a car cruising towards us in our lane!!!
Had the same thing happen another time but at night on a highwya (we were sitting on appox 120 at the time)on the way home from melbourne. Aparently whenever theres a rave on, at the same time we were cruising back theres allways one or 2 cars that head home on the wrong side of the highway.
