The copper involved is quoted to say
"I spoke with the drivers personally and said we don't want to spoil their fun – if someone wants to look at someone else's car sensibly I don't have a problem with that.
"But I do have a problem with dangerous driving and I'm worried someone's going to get seriously hurt. !If you also read through the article, it says nothing about anyone being done for speeding, just vehicle defects which insurance companys would use to back out of a claim in the event of an accident - not to mention that 99.9% of insurance certificates say you are not covered for racing!!!
So…..
Should an accident occur, well then the driver, that’s his / her choice, but should they hit anyone, who pays the bill if the insurance company come up with something which will get them out of a payout…. Yup, the tax payer.
I do sort of sympathise with what goes on down there - its quite, and out of the way, but the law is the law

Could you also set up a durgs cartell down there as its quiet and out of the way….
Granted, motorsport is expensive and is probably the reason this happens as most cant afford track time etc
At the end of the day though, the law is the law, no matter where its being done, and there are people around, there is always the chance something could go wrong and the police decide something must be done.
Id love a 50" TV, but cant afford one - I could go out and steal one, but I don’t as I know its wrong. If you cant afford to race, Im afraid to say don’t do that either - if you do, be prepared to face the consequences….
