If you want to do burnouts I recommend going out of town to a possible mates place with a concrete shed/pad, or pay the small amout of cash it is each month and do burnouts till your hearts content on the burnout pad in your town.

p.s Im sure that everyone has done a burnout on this forum in their life, including myself. I just make sure I try to keep the risk factor to a minimum and not get busted doing something stupid. i.e. tafe carpark is not the most ideal place to pull a skid and get away with it.

Believe me, from my experience, even when it seems that everyone around you supports and encourages and basically condones the burnout, you have to be weary of the 1 sook factor and there is always one and it will bite you in the ass. They can be other drivers, on-lookers, shop owners or private residents, even from a distance. Your car is unique and stands out like dogs balls and cops will always be able to pick it from a distance and remember it from a complaint. Councils also have nothing better to do. In the end, it's fun and exciting, you're mates will have a laugh and it'll grab attention, but it's just not worth the trouble and besides, most chicks I've met don't dig it. They won't get in the car with you if they think it's unsafe, although they apparently want excitement (confusing huh?).
In the end, with all the temptation and peer group pressure, you have to keep it to a minimal if you want your car to stay on the road registered. Just take it and your eager mates to a deserted industrial area or remote area or something.
Some quick formulae:
1 carpark + 1 burnout + a dozen happy entertained condoning spectators = have a nice day, get the fguck out of there quick.
1 carpark + 1 burnout + a dozen happy entertained condoning spectators + 1 sook = trouble, get the fguck out of there quick.
1 private property + 1 Burnout + happy entertained condoning neighbours + 1 sook = continous problems from council and landlords (if any)
1 public road + 1 burnout + a dozen happy entertained condoning spectators + no traffic or residential area = probably nothing until you see blue and red flashing lights.
1 public road + 1 burnout + a dozen happy entertained condoning spectators + traffic and/or residential area = blue and read flashing lights and possibly a bingle.

Burnouts do involve burning rubber........which is a practice that has been banned the world over, for reasons involving both toxic and carcinogenic emissions . So dumping this stuff on your neighbour, wouldnt be very nice.....and yes could invoke attention from the Police and the EPAI just wanted to know if you can get done for doing a burnout on your own property or a carpark.....
in particular, the car park at TAFE????

So where does government legislation stand as far as legally sanctioned burnout events are concerned? By your statement they would be deemed illegal on the grounds of Toxic emmissions and the organisers fined/charged.Burnouts do involve burning rubber........which is a practice that has been banned the world over, for reasons involving both toxic and carcinogenic emissions .

There's a difference between putting a tyre on the incinerator in terms of emissions and smoking one on the car,however, Im not prepared to accept that there wont be any nasties in tyre smoke.

Lets hope they continue to allow 'controlled' burnout type events. If they were to stop controlled burnouts then we would have no drag meetings per se or if we did they might be boring

One thing to say it, another to have the self control to do it when the urge is there.

At tafe you pay BEFORE you drive in, so i paid in the morning, and smoked it up leaving tafe (in tafe grounds).
Im already workin on a story for next monday if they confront me...
for a start i am going to park outside tafe. and i am going to say i stalled it and it was exhaust smoke when i re-started the motor......
The guy in the booth didnt see me actually do it, but when i left the tafe gates and look in the rear view... the smoke was blowing past the booth.

Kids doing burnouts on P's and on their way home from school yeah! wow thats great Now tell me what happens and how many kids may be killed when one of these loonatics loses control and runs into a crowd of other kids standing there watching him and cheering him on? You are right noone really cares until someone gets killed then there is a hue and cry over fast cars and kids.
It's got little to do with grumpy old men! it's got more to do with common dog bguck! Translation - common sense.
yeah it's good to have fun but showing off with little or no driving experience is a bit of a no brainer.
Please think about it.
Thank god we have places like Heathcote where for a measly few dollars one can improve ones skills without puting others at risk.

Herne, would you be reffering to the guy who lost control of his car, went through a school fence and as a result, a 7 year old student lost his foot?
That's slightly different, that dumbass was drunk as a skunk.. what's worse is the joke of a sentence he got, a little kid loses his leg, so he says sorry and gets a wholly suspended sentence, what a bgucking joke!

I used to be a bit of a lead-foot back in my youth (2yrs ago), i'd never do burnouts though... My tyres cost too much for me to replace as often as i could blow them if i did! I was on a cruise and adrenaline took over. A couple of crappy imported jap cars did pathetic little skids as they left the beach (where we were), and i thought to myself 'thats piss weak, i could do heaps better than that'. The thought played on my mind for about half an hour til we had to leave for home... Should I... Shouldn't I... I did a burnout. It was huge, thought one of my tyres was gonna pop, but it didnt! I went past about 5 groups of people, smoke everywhere, i admit it was mad, and everyone gave me the thumbs up whenever they saw me from then on, but what wasnt so good was about 3km up the road i got a ticket!!
The only burnout i ever did on the street was the one that i got caught for... Lesson learned. It could have been more dangerous if i was travelling at speed, but still - i was risking lives, and i payed the price.
Dont do it where there's people who can be injured by your actions, and where you can (and will) get caught. My car was then blacklisted, but since ive had a respray i havent had much trouble.
