no burnouts as far as i know, they havnt had them for a few years now, shame. And yes them brat rods are eveywhere! you need eyes in the back of your head trying to avoid them! evileye

Shrek · Guru

maybe they should give the tot rods a place to cruise without coming onto the main drive ways so we can just cruise, stop chat cruise park and drink!!!!!!!!!!!!!! burnout comp would be great. come on nasc do something we all want.

and get the blues brothers band back

chucky · Rum Boy

Bad manners were good at the NATS a few years ago and wouldnt mind seeing them again but i would love it if the NASC splashed the cash and got the stray cats!

Mitch · Sex God

Who remembers Badness? the Bad manners and Madness cover band, they were better than the real thing or was it just that i was pissed?.

chucky · Rum Boy

yes i remember badness, they were great too. who remembers tom jones? got booed off stage and some people were even throwing cans of beer at him! not as bad as the ramonas tho bleh

Shrek · Guru

sounds great to me, can you get a job as the entertainment organiser on the NASC please? wink

tailfin · Chief Stud

They may be annoying sometimes but lets remember those tot rod drivers are the rodders of the future.We wouldn't want them defecting now would we!!!!!

Fi · Guru

Quite true. At the NSRA event at Billing, they had special Tot Rod cruises organised, where the kids could drive around the site altogther safely and everyone knew what time this was going on. The result was that the kids didn't cruise round on their own getting on peoples nerves so much and when they did they were supervised.

Changing the subject slightly, I hear that the UK Kustoms will be putting on special stunt show at this years Nats..

blues bros will be there!

I heard a rumour there will be no un-insured vehicles aloud i.e. tot rods cos if they t-bone a 70 grand rod then its the nasc who has to pay out.
its just a rumour but it makes sense.
viva won't be done in time (reminds me, i must start that smile )
we will have to try and get it so old skool will camp next to turtle speed and we will all chip in and get an anti mods and rodders banner made up which covers our whole camp

Ask Mike about the ins and outs of insurance and car clubs, he has been working on sorting out the Humber CLubs public liabilty insurance. yawn

But very, very important.

mrs pop · Senior Member

last year they where haveing loads of fun whizzing around ...let them have there own little bit some where so they dont get hurt... luca and anthony wants one..but i do agree with the insurance you must have...

Fi · Guru

That's why the NRSA's idea of the organised tot rod cruises seems to work, but then you need people to organise these things and then I guess you are into child protection issues.

Mike was saying about the insurance issue, it's so much a problem if for example a £70k rod gets damaged, it's when someone is seriously hurt or worse and needs to claim for several million pounds. If the club doesn't have the money to pay up, then it's the members that have to put their hands in their pockets. Apparently this has happened to one club. A very scarry thought!

This is why the UK Kustoms are not allowed to roof chop klub members cars, as they did back in the good old days.

This is very true and i think it is great for the kids but they should not be aloud to go on the showground road because they are so low down and hard to see plus they have no road sense and often just cut across in front of cars, nobody wants their car damaged, the kids will be upset if their tot rods are damaged and worse still one of the little rascals might get hurt. I wouldnt dream of trying to stop them from having their fun but it should be done in designated areas. smile

mrs pop · Senior Member

I THINK THE PARENTS WHO BUY THE KIDS THE LITTLE RODS , SHOULD ALL TAKE IT IN TURNS TO WATCH THE KIDDIES THEM SELFS...NOT RELY ON OTHER PEOPLE TO VOLUNTER TO DO IT ...NO ONE WANTS TO SPOIL THEIR FUN ...GOD IF I COULD I WOULD RIDE IN ONE BUT DONT THINK I WOULD BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF IT THOUGH ....OLD AGE... OR JUST BEING FAT. HAHAHHA
