coppins crossing

A couple of mornings ago these two sites appeared at Coppins Crossing. Do you think they might be related?

Almost certainly not related, as the car in photo A looks like a bog-standard front wheel drive econobox which would be totally incapable of producing the results in photo B!

I thought the car could be an early model Commodore (VB-VH),

Yep, and it could be an SL/E by looking at the steering wheel. A bit hard to tell for sure though.

That was what I thought that morning, (from the angle the photo was taken), but a look at the front on the way home made me think not commodore. Not sure what though.

Sorry p1, the sites were already there. The sights may be new however.

Yeah, I saw that as I clicked send…. Spell check can’t help with stupid.

Nah, not Belconnen. Looks like the work of a hooligan from Duffy!

You can tell ’cause hoons from the south-side do their doughnuts anticlockwise.

I thought the car could be an early model Commodore (VB-VH), otherwise you can still do reverse donuts in FWD, haha!

please… we can’t see their brake lights… they could be just standing

For Gawd’s sake, give Belco a break! The last time I looked at a map, Coppin’s Crossing was closer to Weston and the hoon marks were on the southside anyway. Just a short jaunt from Red Hill might be more appropriate.

Mmmm, could be right, did stop long enough to actually determine make or drivetrain.
