Anyone who spends as much time on their car as he does aint gonnna act like a idiot and trash it, I've followed him on meets and he always drives with respect and maturity on the roads. As for the flamer kit most of the time its other owners who are usually 2 faced about flamer kits "lame lame etc etc" who are the ones going flame it flame it!
Let's face it, we've all acted like 'Jack the Lad' once or twice so I really don't see what the big deal is.
PS: Nice pick of the flamer drex, car is looking sweet as ever.

I personally disagree with the Flamer rule as there were a few clubs carrying out controlled Flame outs.
By carrying out these Not Aloud things JAE will have problems with continuing at Billing.
I understand that its all about enjoyment. But what happens if Billing says - Sorry Folks it aint going to happen here no more ?

Seem'd ok to me but then i'm pretty chilled about stuff, i'm sure Billing are used to a few people fragging up the grass every now and then too, i've been going to shows there for years (it's only 10 miles from home) and you aways get a few donuts at the end.
It's the same at the Pod when you get a rain-out.
3pm? I was on the PE stand then too
Other than that, was it a good show?
Cheers

I can only imagine it was taking them around an hour just to get to the exit gate.not good.Now before you ask, No i dont have an idea of a better venue but i'm not sure I will go back next year.

Sitting in a Stationary Car with a few pops and flames coming out of the exhaust. Is a differnt department form Driving about at speed doing donuts isnt it ???
I spoke to a friend today who attends the Landrover Rally which takes place a week before us, a couple of years ago a chap, who was very drunk, decided to do some do nuts in his ole V8 Landrover, he lost control and went partly over a tent, there was a young girl asleep in that tent, luckly the wheels just missed her, but the tent was destroyed.
The man in the Landrover was dragged out and was given a good seeing too.
Donuts can Kill while Popping and flaming exhaust cant ? can they ?

Anyway here is the vid. It's just my donut because the original vid was 90meg, and I'm speaking for myself, not the others. (Oh, and I'm wearing a baseball cap because my head got sun-burned on the saturday )
Donut video
Judge for yourselves.

brian, this is scoobynet, not the CIA.
for the benefit of anyone who is remoteley interested I suggested that dreXel's ( still got the dreadlocks???), donut was distinctly dull, and the bloke who shot it was Swahili,as I could not understand a fookin word he said, though in hidsight ( and firther vid viewing ) , it's possible that he may be a geordie.
also posted a link to a vid ( that I found on SN ) of a plonker trying to pull a donut and getting it slightly wrong - in a spartan- in a car park-big fcukin deal.

LOL, no I haven't got dreadlocks, I don't have any hair I did get the name from True Romance though, quality film
Anyway, the accent you hear is Bristolian, but your right, it does indeed sound swahili on that vid
As far as the donut not being impressive, well that wasn't the point. I was doing it for my own enjoyment, that's all. Just some fun.

The crowd appeared after we started the donuts, I wasn't donutting for the crowd.

And why are you calling the video sad, I only posted it so people could make their own judgements, I didn't post it because I thought it was a 'cool' video

Drex - I wouldn't bother wasting your keyboard time anymore mate - you have stated your case and have linked the video, I don't think you can do much more to show and explain what happened The main thing is you enjoyed it so did some onlookers too and no-one was hurt....surely case closed isn't it

[QUOTE=DreXeL]No I was not. I was on a stand with a club that covers ALL jap performace cars, not just scoobs (Ultimate Japanese Car Club). I was on the SIDC stand at Japfest last year, you kind of blend in when parked amongst 500 other scoobs so I went on a stand where I was the only scoob.
not at weston wheels you won't be ;-)

The whole point is its not often you get a patch of grass a) big enough b) that you are driving on and c) at a car show.
Its not like you are going to go hunting for grass to do donuts on and its not like any of us have gardens big enough to do it on. It was clearly a spur of the moment opportunity, like a snow-covered empty car park.
There was nothing remotely dangerous that I could see from the video and it didn't exactly do much damage to the grass, have you seen what camping does to grass??? Does that stop them allowing hundreds to camp?
Some true fVckwits on this thread.
