    WOW

    Kid you're guilty of street racing b/c you tinkered with your car. I think modifying cars keeps a lot of kids out of trouble, just look at the decline of street gangs as a result of kids getting hobbies

    Its just Cali though. I don't think there are any other states that are THAT strict yet.

    One question though - say I drive a hypothetical modified car from GA to Cali and drive around on a vacation or something. What would they do?

    "Once Sung was stopped, they saw other signs of illegal street racing, including a fiberglass hood and a sway bar on the back of the car."


    *sarcasam*... yep, sway bars are side effects of illegal racing... they just pop up out of nowhere on your car after a race."

    hmm, so they can crush modified hondas because they assume we're street racing, but what about the souped up foxbodies and camaros and old school vettes and mustangs?

    Once Sung was stopped, they saw other signs of illegal street racing, including a fiberglass hood and a sway bar on the back of the car, said Officer Brian Nystedt. A peek under the hood revealed the vehicle identification number had been chipped off the transmission, which is a sure sign of a stolen part, Nystedt added.


    since when does that mean you street race?

    Lol @ neg camber comment. They crushed it because he had stolen parts, period. I believe the Author just added in the street racing part to spice up the article.

    In a way. But at the same time, it gives a lot of kids a different avenue to get in trouble on with. People slap an intake on a Honda and thing they're Mario Andretti and start their racing every other car on the road.

    Lolol. Hopefully, and I'm sure it is, that was sarcasm. Later, QD.

    Cali FTL

    So they managed to catch one guy with stolen parts. Good job. Now, how many cars with legally purchased parts have they crushed under their asanine laws?

    If you read the article, the officer noticed that the VIN plate was taken off of the transmission.
