My favorite hoon car was a friends HB Torana when I was 17. This incredible power machine was amazing.
To drop a burnout on shiny concrete all you had to do was get 4 ot 6 people to lift one of the rear wheels off the ground then you put it is first held it flat while it was dropped.
It would squeal and make a 30cm long black mark before bogging and crawling off.

We tried to do it on sticky new bituman but it would bog and stall.

My brother once got a Datsun Stanza on gas as a grandpa hand me down......it wouldn't pull ya uncle off ya aunty

It would hardly turn the tyres on gravel (auto), so we parked it in the garage, revved it to 4500rpm in neutral, and slammed it in drive! Tranny didnt like it...but it's the only opportunity it got to take off sideways!

Can't believe how open they were about it. Hope their 15 mins of fame was worth all the trouble they'd be sure to cop. If I had some geek dob me in to the police for a brake light thats out, I'd hunt him down and steal his modded PC and smack his coke bottle glasses off of his crater face.

And, @ the 'street' racers ... I was laughing while watching. They're the kinda people who try to race real cars on half throttle. Go back to you're shanties, and stay the hell away from my TV screen!

They have already copped crap. People have found out all their personal details and posted them on the internet. One of their houses has been bricked already apparently :

That would have been the bright thing to do you would think. I reckon TT will have a follow up about those kids getting the crap kicked out of them.

The real danger is i can see a geek army as a possible outcome from this, there would be many boring dont fit in people who would see this as a alternate pastime, beware
