Since when did having fun make someone a t**t? Not dangerous, just exuberant, that's what hooning is.
Where are all the driving enthusiasts, did I accidentally the gardners world forums or something?

My "exuberance" has lead to me testing thoroughly the "hoon ability" of many cars of the years.

The winner (until it fell apart) was the £400 x plate Alfa 145 t spark

So fking good.

The one that sustains the most abuse without ever showing it.. 2002 Mondeo lx (1800 petrol)

Ask any racer, any real racer. It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, hooning's hooning.

Racing is different. It isnt relaxing or for entertainment or even for the journey. It is a task, a goal to be achieved. There is no satisfaction (unless you cross the line first/set the fastest time...whatever)

Hooning seems to be about the pleasure of the occasion and enjoying ones/the vehicle's abilities
