It had something to do with the capabilities to keep up with high performance cars and how so many "hoons" are escaping from high speed chases.
Pretty sure it was close to that and I'm unsure about the time but this was after a few wines.

Just had a quick look on the channel 9 webpage but couldn't find anything.

Hopefully someone can cap this and post on youtube etc?

I don't know about you guys but the first thing I do when I see the flashing lights in my rear view is drop it back a gear, as its definitely more viable to start a chase and possibly kill yourself/someone else rather then get a metaphorical wrap across the knuckles or a hundred or so dollars fine etc

too right.

Cops are pissed off cause all their XR6T's and V8 commies are being downgraded to lowly 6 cyl cooking varieties. Oh the hoons are escaping, won't somebody think of he children!!!!

They won't catch a VS S pac either if they call off the chase after xxxkm/h so I fail to see the point.

I saw that ad as well, and it showed a Skyline doing a tyre cook. It'll end up being another car enthusiast/hoon bashing story.

Be nice if they stated that most cars that give chase are stolen...... Or owned by a certain culture that wouldn't be charged if shit went pair shaped.

The term they used was "serious criminals" that were getting away from them. If ACA stick to their usual spiel then hoon, car enthusiast & serious criminal are all the same thing.

Yep it was the same yellow GTS-T cutting up at Scarborough that they have been using since that 1999 GTS-T came out.

Again, FAIL channel 9.
