I flicked on the telly before I left for work this morning, and Sunrise was on. I caught the bit where they were introducing the stories for the day, and one of them was something about "how do you feel about your local neighbours" or something.
Anyway, I turned around and all I saw on the screen was a dakened street and what looked like a black AU XR with a hawk wing ripping a massive doughnut! I didnt stick around to see the full story as I had to leave for work. Just wondering if anyone saw what it was about? Evan |

I am sure it was to do with feeling safe in you neighborhood.
There was talk of gangs, people doing wheelies, etc, etc, etc. It was not a big issue, just the "all-stars" talking about it.

Fair enough, thanks guys. I just thought it was funny seeing an AU ripping a nice skid on TV! I wonder if it was anyone from here!

They only showed one falcon ... the rest of the images were of Commodores racing each other.
