Reference the above, news just fresh in, we have just lost the Apex festival, the new noise test levels are biggining to bite, Drifting is already excluded from many venues for noise, we are ALL part of this and need to add noise suppression into our engineering of new builds as a priority, go hard or go home, make noise and go home.

I rented a car in Ireland years ago, they wouldn't even allow you to open the hood as it had a special key. They talked about this legislation in Holland also of owners not being able to even mess with their own cars, etc. Also sorry for the hijack.

Hi
I just got back from an event in Sydney called Powercruise, http://www.powercruise.com/ (check out the videos) its a 4 day event where you get to drive your car around a race track at moderate speeds with tough street cars and have little races against other cars on the straights up to 130 kph or sometimes a little over that, they also have drags, drifting, power skid comps, burnout comps etc. What the car haters don't take into account is the money spent on cars to turn up and run this event and many other events, its a hidden economy that would disappear if we couldn't touch our cars. Steve

No worries about the Hi Jack's fella's.
If I remember there was some talk about coming down hard on classic car enthusiasts/modifiers/tuners in the Uk a while ago. It will take a brave and stupid politician to try to implement any drastic changes, its a big industry with lots of followers and livelyhoods involved. for this reason I can't see anything too drastic happening. But I think the noise issues are quite rightly founded if its out of hand, noise is a pollution at the end of the day and its not pleasant, a bit like Death Metal

Darren at Dc customs has been working his nuts off masking up the car and prepping the cage for a fresh coat of paint. I can't imagine how much of a headache the masking was as the car is in full paint with a headlining. Thanks Darren You can see from these and other pics that he is taking great care not to damage the car whilst working on it it~original[/IMG]

Gorgeous! Not sure if its available on your side of the atlantic but check out xpel.com. I work in the car care product industry and its definitely the best clear protective film on the market and will let the true color and flake in the red to come through.
