Would you support a safe space for 'boy racers'?
Hi neighbours! Recently, residents of Thames concerned about boy racers down suburban streets thought a solution may be to implement more tracks, or safe, designated spaces for the activity. Do you agree?
Do you think there should be areas where people can partake in this hobby? Or do you think it would make matters worse? If you are a car enthusiast - what would you like to see? Let us know in the comments below!

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
