the cops are cool with it as long as there is no F!@$'heads doing burnnouts or that kind of behavior, every last tuesday of the month its on in Hoppers, every first tuesday of the month its on in geelong. Its pretty good i must say, ive heard from the hoppers meet is to have your car in it, it has to be 84' or earlier. In geelong anything is there really

Thats because Autobarn attracts all types of wannabes.

I think I will definitely go to the next one, seems to be getting rather large.

the boys in blue looked to be just kickin back and having a chat with who ever wanted to say gday.
mutual respect goes a long way,plus they may be car entusiasts too!!!
i saw some newish cars there as well,when i got there i went to pull in
in my car(o3 xr6)and there was no problem except they wanted 5clams to park in there,so i parked 20 meters away and saved some coin.

The only riots is when some dick head does a skid.

There is a photo in the e series section of the coppers there in the carpark playing with their remote control car. As gotanxr6 said, "mutual respect goes a long way"
