Hoons and their signature black rubber markings left from a couple of weeks ago

The picture I’ve associated with this post was taken near our house this morning. The actually skid mark was created about two weeks ago.

I was just getting ready when I heard a high performance motor drive past our house. Well, I say high performance but its pretty standard down under.

Many of the motors in Australia have huge engines and can be heard from quite some distance away. For young Australians, bigger is often better so many won’t even consider a car unless its got an engine over four litres in size, many of which are bought only days after they have past their driving tests!

Judging by the grumble I reckon this particular motor was well over 4 Litres and the driver wasn’t out for an late Sunday morning saunter.

What does the guy do? He slows down to a stop. revs his engine for several seconds until there’s almost fire coming out of the quad exhaust pipe at the back, then takes off in a cloud of smoke leaving about 10 metres of black rubber behind him.
