that goes along with one of the funniest comebacks i've heard. silly old **** should know better and being a skilled racing driver should know that public roads are bloody dangerous, you might be skilled and able to handle it but who is to say some other ****wit infront or comming the otherway can.

The Premier has weighed into the argument so no doubt one of the media outlets will interview the suspect for tonights news. |

Was mentioned he, and another person also caught, were competing in a NDSOC "Rally" at the time. |

Another competitor on the Rally will also be charged for speeding. Does CAMS have the power to cancel competition licences? If so both of these blokes should be relegated to spectating for awhile. |

If NDSOC had a CAMS permit for the event (and if they did it would have strictly been a non-competiton social permit) then yes they can be charged under the NCR's.
I reckon we will see some action from the club before CAMSget involved. |

If NDSOC had a AASA permit do they have the power to take any action [sport into disrepute etc.]
The driver in question should have thought about Mike Hawthorn, he was the 1958 world champion and got caught out on a publc road and there was no car coming the other way. Silly old goat now going on about being a race driver - plays into the hands of the cops. TBFTGOGGI !! |

Turns out the event wasn't CAMS permitted so I guess it's up to the clubs to dish out the punishment (if any)

Should this thread be on the road car forum, it has little to do with Australian & NZ Touring Cars.
