Toymodders and Guests,

This is a personal request from me so please take the time to read it.

There has been a increase in the number of threads on these forums that seem to promote or support street racing over the last few months. As a result the club board has had to step in here and there and try to put a stop to it. This is not something we enjoy as we could all better serve the club, by better utilising our time.

We are by no means trying to tell you how to drive your car or how to behave. I'm sure most people on these forums have had their share of events on the open road and I am no exception. No one here is foolish enough to think it won't happen again, all we ask is that you don't encourage it here and think about it for your own well being and the safety of others.

There are places for racing and NSW has some cost effective locations such as Eastern Creek and Wakefield Raceway.

Please respect the clubs stance on this subject and if you wish to comment you can email the entire board on board@toymods.org.auor reply to the thread.

Thankyou,

Troy,

Mate if you guys want to have a Cruise up the Pacific Highway or a run tho the National Park your more than welcome to post it up. Thats one of the things the forums are for.

All we ask is three things really,

1st and foremost if there is an official Club event on don't organise anything for the same Day/time It isn't fair on the people that work hard to bring the club events. Simon has alot of work to do to make sure these events happen.

2nd Have some social conscience. Drag Racing on the street is Illegal the club cannot support that sort of thing. It would be like posting up when your going to steel a car from the local car Park. We just can't condone it.

The 3rd is a request to show some courtesy to Simon and keep him informed of events you may be organising. You may wonder why but its simply so that we can keep track of what our members want to do and if possible maybe even make them official events, (Such as Bigworms Cruise)

Thanks,

I know that orgainising street races is illegal, and I back your stance up 100%.

But are the stories about "spur of the moment" stuff still alright in the warstories forum? I enjoy reading that sort of thing for the good entertainment.

Apollo...

We cannot stop individuals from breaking the law or talking about how they have broken it - that is up to the police to enforce (many of whom we know read these forums).

All we can do is discourage such practices and ensure that nothing illegal occurs at officially organised toymods events or is associated with the toymods name.

Be Safe. Have Fun. Keep it Clean.
