Sad to see some (very justified) criticism of ARAC in some posts - most seems to come about through our lack of information dissemination. Complaints about the website being out of date were made years ago - Well there's a new site now http://arac.org.nz please check it out ARAC has not gone away ...

It's rare for me to post here, but have to advise some vehicles proudly displaying ORE stickers were seen hooning beyond Karori Stream and have been reported to the authorities This Saturday is the rubbish collection organised by Barry Insul, and the cops will be in attendance checking vehicles ...
