Boy racers on our streets should get a life
BOY RACERS - I'm really sick and tired of the so-called "boy racers" with various types of customised cars, but all with loud exhausts, who just seem to roar around the local streets endangering other road users and pedestrians.
Why do these louts feel the need to heavily modify their cars and treat the streets like Silverstone anyway? Its not cool and it doesnt impress anyone, except possibly the other boy racers.
Sure, everyone needs a bit of a thrill now and again. I used to take my motorbikes to the local race track to let off steam, but these morons seem afraid to leave the safety of their council estate. Perhaps they are afraid they might get lost or something (hey what a good idea!).
The Police aren't interested (as usual), and I know of several residents who are planning to take some sort of vigilante action and severely damage the cars of the worst offenders.
I don't condone this, but I can certainly understand their frustration when nothing else can be done. People around here are simply fed up with these boy racers, and unless something is done soon someone is likely to get hurt.

So what is a boy racer anyway?

Totally useless members of society who have nothing better to do with theior time than roar aorund in the small hours of the morning waking up respectable people who do actually have a job to go to in the morning.

The cars should be confiscated and crushed, if not in 100% roadworthy condition, and most of them aren't when they have been modified. Those in decent condition, and that would be the minority, should be sold at public auction and the funds paid into a road accident fund to help the victims of uninsured drivers.
I would stop short of saying that they should be crushed with the occupants inside, but the thought has crossed my mind.
What is the difference between a Renault Clio and a porcupine? The porcupine's prick are on the outside.
We moved off a council estate because of this problem, as I said in a previous post "THIKOS" all they can do is create mayhem and noise.
Some people actually condone this behaviour, "sport" "pastime" etc.
Anti-social MORONS.
What about them? I'll tell you what. Their actions in no way mitigate the actions of boy racers. I put both groups in the same boat: morons.
What we are seeing in this country is a system that does not punish the right people. For example, in a certain area near me there are ridiculously-high speed ramps, even few yards. Why? Because of the idiotic aforementioned element. So the rest of us suffer our cars being damaged and the inconvenience of being bounced around like cattle thanks to the cretinous slime and the council who just thinks out of it's rear instead of tackling the source of the problem.
Even now, at 5:08am I have been woken 3 times by this lot. You add up the hours..days of your life you lose and you realise the absurdity of trying to put up with it. We have done no crime to deserve this. We move to other areas, our peace only lasts so long.
The majority of people who support this kind of behaviour are not true car fans, they are boy racers and people who sell loud exhausts. They are people who get a twisted, vindictive kick out of annoying others. They are people who never really 'grew up' and faced their responsibilities like they should have done. If you think this is evil speak then make no mistake - you really need to live amongst this element to understand how it ticks, how it breeds and how it destroys communities. Ban loud exhausts in built-up areas. If they're seen driving too fast for the conditions, or they've got a bad attitude - take them off the roads and make them walk. Time to deal with this social vomit and the problems it creates. We the majority haven't done anythnig wrong here, remember that. We deserve better than to be subjected to this crap.
Every single day it is hell where I live. These morons race around my estate en masse; they go up and down every few minutes with such routine that you can set your clock by it. Not one, not two or three, but literally gangs of cars. The noise is so loud it shakes my windows. Every single time I take my phones off or go to the toilet I can hear them. Why the hell should they be allowed to do it?
If I played my music loud or shouted a lot, or was as much of a general moron as these people then I would be noticed - so why aren't they being done for breach of the peace? We live in a crowded country where space and privacy is at a premium, so the priority in built-up areas should be respect. The way they look, they way they sound (mouthing off), the dangerous way they drive.
Please, just let them crash and die in a fire ball. Sorry but that is how I feel, these people make my life hell and I get no peace, I cannot relax in my own house and I'm just sick of it. I reckon either the law should stop AND fine these morons or society will find it's own way of dealing with them. Go seek attention someone else (children's play pen?), let the adults have their peace and privacy - or maybe we should get our OWN cars and rev them up outside their house all day and night. I bet they'd soon come out of their chav-infested hive to complain then. This moronic element can rot in hell as far as I am concerned.

The first was a group of lads in an area I recently had the misfortune to live in. One of them had an Audi RS4 with a knackered exhaust. Every night until the wee small hours they would drive round fast and very loud. Round and round the same area, night after night, until the police impounded the car and nicked the driver for breach of the peace or whatever it was.
The second example isn't really a boy racer. It's a friend of mine who loves fast cars and knows how to drive them. He looked after his boss' house while he was on holiday and had access to his Porsche 911 Turbo. Being a decent professional chap, he didn't constantly drive round a residential area last, fast and dangerously to enjoy the car. He took the car out of the city to quiet country roads where there was nobody around.
That's the difference between socially backward scum and the rest of us.

Would it be acceptable to run up to a stranger and SHOUT LOUDLY IN THEIR EAR ? NO..so why is this ?
do what me and my friends do...nip out at nite and shove any solid cylinder object roughly the diameter of the exhaust- 30cm long into the exhaust of the offender - 2 bananas works a treat.
a noisy neighbour in our area had to have his noisy suburu exhaust fitted 3 times , then he eventually caught on and got a normal exhaust.
