I'll stop thinking this is ridiculous when I see legislation that stops me from having to stare at the rock bars on the front/underside of 12 foot tall trucks. I fail to see how modifications to ride height (in the other directon) and attachments which defeat crumple zone designs is any less a public safety issue.

AGGGHHH


This pissed me off so much!!!!!!

"Intake breather filter here, even this blue hose...."

AGHHH GOD this pisses me offf so much. I hope he isn't serious.

Arrest him for not opening his hood... these dumb**** pigs.

What the hell do these mods do? If it passes smog there are no gasses harming our environment.... what the hell do they want?

Oh yeah, because if the cops charge up the ass on your modified parts, that will in turn decrease deaths from street racing.... because it means your car isn't modified anymore..... even though your car doesn't have to be modified to street race....

Stupid logic. However I can't expect much....

I thought I lived in the United States of AMERICA. THE LAND OF THE FREE.

We should really organize a protest but this would just be a remake of San Jose HIN. The cops will wait for everyone to leave and give them tickets for "illegal modifications."

Yep, the US is heading more in the totalitarian direction. "Government by the people, for the people"...uh, wait, let's change that to "Government of the people, by the ruling classes". Oh yeah, much better.

that is a great video to show what our tax money is spent on. But you have to pay to play, the only issue I have with this is that I have a friend that litterally drives a drag nova, tubbed, caged, one seat, full fuel cell etc and has been waved to and gotten the thumbs up from cops and never gotten a ticket.

It's probably grandfathered from all those draconian regulations.

I didn't see anything targeting imports vs. domestics - it's just that the Civic is the '57 Chevy of today. Still pretty crappy.
