That if you are going to do something stupid and illegal, then don’t take footage of it.
As seen by this young bloke who loves his car so much that he just has to show everyone how fast he can drive on Canberras roads.
His BMW on Commonwealth Ave
More footage below
On Northbourne Ave
On Belconnen Way
Lastly, showing us the car.

I wonder if Chong is his real licence plate?
Even the courtesy of displaying his registration.. The owner of a car with the rego “CHONG” displayed on a brand new beemer isn’t going to be hard to track down. Even the footage if it didn’t have the rego you could deduct well enough that he lives in one of the newest suburbs in Canberra, take a pick of roughly 3 that are developed to the stage seen in the video. I’m sure he’ll be getting a visit in the next few days once somebody directs the police to it.
Times like these that you would enjoy a car crushing law being introduced.. The look on the driver’s face would be good to see.
You can tell he is all about Image.
Hahaha, it’s his real plate; I’ve seen this kid driving around the ANU.
He’s definitely acting like a stupid little bastard, but if that actually is Northbourne (my skim through the video never shows anything but the speedo), then he really IS a stupid little bastard. The other two aren’t in the middle of housing areas and prone to police presence.
worst burnout ever
I’ve seen this wanker around, he likes to fly up & down roads on the northside alot.
I love how on his Youtube page he doesn’t allow comments as he knows what he will get.
From memory I’ve seen this car pull into a house in Franklin
and they wonder why so many people are getting killed on the roads..
Hope the police are soon knocking on his door.
Even if he claims that the first videos can’t be linked to his car, he should at least be picked up for the burnout and dangerous driving around suburbia.
Moron.
Yep look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6_GvCf2OC0
If I see his car, I might go carve ‘YOUTUBE’ into the paintwork with my key.
Everlasting respect to whomever carves RA in the side of his car.
And just to indicate what a complete douchebag this guy is, he still uses his indicator while travelling more than twice the speed limit down Northbourne Avenue. Sheesh. Anyone wanna take bets on how long before he’s charged?
Is he friends with Cheech?
If I bought such a nice, expensive BMW, I would fully expect it to be able to do those speeds. No need to prove it to the police with video.
Haha, what a bozo!
That’s Baudinette Cct in Bruce. Had thought most of those were Defence Housing.
I’ve seen this guy around too. He nearly took me out on the Barton a while ago! IDIOT!
Small boy bits me thinks!
I’m best mates with him… we go out racing on a few occasions… Canberra has the best roads.
If you really want to go nuts in your car, Wakefield park is only an hour away.
Mothy said :
Yep, that’s the one Mothy. I live in the next street and have seen this car around a few times. I’m sure the cops will be visiting soon enough with videos like this online.

People like that just want to be seen….so you’ve done your part RA
“Even if he claims that the first videos can’t be linked to his car, he should at least be picked up for the burnout and dangerous driving around suburbia.”
Add to the list use of a mobile phone while driving?
@#17 – I assume you drive a car from [b]Troll[/b]hattan!
I’m loving my work on the bold tags above!

So it’s only hoons in Nissan Pulsars that you have a problem with?
VYBerlinaV8_the_one_they_all_copy said :
Couldn’t agree more
this is the kind of idiot I’ve love to use as a speed hump in by fourbie.
Spideydog said :
I know a local guy who has a V8 similar to mine, but with at least 150hp more through various performance mods. Around town he drives like a complete Grandma, but at Wakefield Park, the porsches struggle to keep up.
Putting up a video of a fast lap at the track impresses me a lot more than some tosser nailing the throttle on a public road.
VYBerlinaV8_the_one_they_all_copy said :
Wakefield Park just doesnt have that “street feel” to it… doesnt interest me……
Postalgeek said :
Yeah cos they’re rubbish cars…. My Barina is still tops……
Should we run a sweep to guess how long until Chong gets a visit from Mr Plod?
VYBerlinaV8_the_one_they_all_copy said :
Wakefield probably wouldnt suit him, as from what Ive heard they ensure both car and driver are capable of driving safely and from looking at this video the latter leaves him a bit out of luck. Not to mention, he’s probably spent so much money on his car he probably cant afford to goto somewhere legal to drive.
lol I’d be ashamed in posting a vid like that, … if you are going to do it, do it properly and nail it!!
I’d chop that beemer any day!
the video would’ve been much more entertaining if he’d lost control and ended up in the lake at the end of it. whata moron
Okay Mr. Burns Here are your messages: “You have thirty minutes to move your car.” “You have ten minutes to move your car.” “Your car has been impounded.” “Your car has been crushed into a cube.” “You have thirty minutes to move your cube.”
cube it ??
So, daddy bought little chongy a Beemer or he’s a drug runner for the triads?
The stupidity of this retard cannot be understated. I’ll be happy to kick his door in for him if I see the car parked on the street.
What a McDouche Nugget.
Postalgeek said :
Love it… Canberran Vigilantism!!!
My neighbour is a druggo, could you scratch “crack” into his forehead for me pls?
I’ll certainly be having some choice words with him if I see him. This person is a perfect example of why 17-25 year olds have the highest number of deaths on the road per capita. He clearly has absolutely NO concept of how dangerous his driving is at the speed limit, let alone 3.5 times over the speed limit. He also clearly has absolutely no regard for his safety, let alone the safety of others. Naturally if someone were to put forward these facts to him, he would simply palm them off as he’ll consider himself a good driver who’s never yet had a crash…
Perhaps, if a person under the age of 25 is caught driving at twice the speed limit on more than two occasions, their licence should be revoked until they turn 25? Hopefully by that stage they’ll have developed more suitable self preservation skills required for the task of driving.
I have saved a copy of these videos, saved his username, and have also called the police. I’ll be burning a copy and dropping into the police station next door in the next half hour. Fingers crossed this idiot is put in front of a judge who’s able to tear strips off him.
And who exactly did this hurt? Noone. Get off your high horses and stop fussing about nothing.

You have absolutely no evidence of that, you ignoramus.
However, I do have evidence that you are an ignoramus.
What an idiot- esp. putting up the last video. Good work Sge, this guy deserves everything he gets.
sloppery said :
You just don’t get it do you. Wonder if you would say this if it was one of your family members being scrapped of the road because of this idiot.
It’s worth carrying a bottle of brake fluid around, in case one ever comes across this moron’s motor.
related to this, but where is the deterrent for this type of behaviour???there is just no real punishment for this type of thing. watching ‘the force’ the other day, with the girl who couldnt even stand she was that drunk caught driving. she lost her license for 6 months and a fine. whoop de doo. that is not a deterrent. What would this guy get, a slap on the wrist, a fine he (or his ‘vocation’ or parents) can clearly afford? its bullshit.
if we are going to be serious about this, there needs to be tougher penalties. cube his car, take away his license for 5 years, something other than what we have.
@sloppery
Simply put, the perceived risk associated with driving at 210km/h on an urban public road cannot be justified in ANY circumstance, while the road is actually open to the public.
While I was an Ambulance Officer, the fastest I ever traveled was 160km/h on an empty rural highway whilst under Police escort. Without a police escort 30-40km/h over the limit was the max I’d ever travel under lights and siren.
Other road users are simply not expecting a vehicle to approach them at such high speeds.
Before you go justifying high speed with “but in Germany, but in Austria, but in Europe…” road users in Europe are accustomed to high speeds on motorways, they are trained accordingly. Their motorways are also designed and maintained according to extremely strict universal standards, unlike Canberran roads where the ACT GovCo has trouble maintaining the simplest of lane markings.
Next time you get behind the wheel of a car, think to yourself before you drive off, that you as a person in control of a motor vehicle, are entirely capable of making a mistake that is going to claim the life of an innocent party, or cause them to become paralyzed for the next 50+ years. Or maybe end up orphaning or killing some children. Imagine being responsible for a child growing up without their parents because you didn’t think driving excessively fast (for no other reason than having a bit of fun) was going to hurt anyone? All are possible scenarios as a result of a car crash that occurs at any speed, let alone one that occurs at 3.5 times the speed limit. That fact should scare the shit out of you… and IMHO if it doesn’t, you should not be allowed anywhere near a car, ever.
sloppery said :
… exactly sloppery – all those haters should all get some sweet new C4Rh8R R4C15T number plates.
The guy is a fucking idiot…
Interesting to note that some people on here condemning his behaviour also call for faster limits in other threads… And therein lies the problem… What is fast enough for one/some won’t be for others… People who think some roads should have higher speed limits will still be considered too slow for morons like this… Which is why we all need to stick to current limits and quit our moaning…
sloppery said :
Is that how it works? I might go around shooting a gun. As long as no one gets hurt, that’s okay.
I wonder if Mummy knows he’s driving her car around like this?
sloppery said :
Yep: and you’re a moron too.
He’s an accident waiting to happen.
sloppery said :
Who could it have hurt? The driver, other road users, pedestrians, the emergency services personnel who would have had to clean up the mess (human) and tell the families etc etc etc.
It’s all about consequences – something that so many people simply do not think out. You may be in “total control” but you have absolutely no control over anything else.
