    This section here...

    SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
    This Act may be cited as the `High-Powered Vehicles Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act of 2009'.
    SEC. 2. DEFINITIONS.
    (a) In General- Section 921(a)(30) of title 18, United States Code, as added by section 2(a) of this Act, is amended to read as follows:
    `(30) The term `High-Powered Vehicle' means any of the following:
    `(A) The following autos or copies, replicas or duplicates thereof:
    `(i) Ford Mustang, GT350, GT500KR, Cobra, Mustang GT, Mustang SVO, Roush, Saleen, Turbocoupe, Shelby, Mercury Capri;
    `(ii) Chevrolet Camaro or Pontiac Firebird;
    `(iii) Buick Grand National, Turbo or GNX ;
    `(iv) Dodge Charger, Challenger, Magnum, SuperBee, SuperBird, Viper, Plymouth Barracuda;
    Contradicts this section

    SEC. 5. REPEAL OF CERTAIN EXEMPTIONS.
    Section 922(v)(3) of title 18, United States Code, as added by section 2(a) of this Act, is amended by striking `(3)' and all that follows through the 1st sentence and inserting the following:
    `(3) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to any vehicle that--
    `(A) is manually started by a crank;
    `(B) has been rendered permanently inoperable; or
    `(C) is an antique auto.'.
    Either way, this wouldn't get any votes.

    `(E)(i) Except as provided in clause (ii), any vehicle with the capacity of producing over 150 brake horsepower.
    So the douche bag bitch that wrote this is pretty much wanting to ban every fuel powered car on the road. Even the police cars make more power than that. And it's easy to manipulate that. You can make electric cars fast. It's all a matter of finding a battery that can retain a charge. Like I said, it won't win.

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    The germans have made a kit for the prius to be making a GOOD bit of power out of the electric motors.. I think it was something equivelant of 450hp??? Doesnt realy matter, electric motors can be very capable of producing a lot of power, then get a light weight body and your back in the scene with a differant breed of street racers. Trains run off of electric motors, the only reason for their diesel engines is to be used as a generator. If it can tow all that cargo imagine that torque in a car..
