Thats exactly the issue. It's almost like Minority Report.... catch the "possible, soon to be criminal" before he commits an act of crime in the future. Hell, lock us all up then. It's nice to know that my 2 vehicles are both illegal and possible deadly weapons in many areas.

Legislators must have watch Fast and the Furious and thought it was a documentary. Street racing can hurt and kill people.... not modding. I can see SEMA being a terrorist organization in the near future, heh.

EDIT: For the record, many of you may recall when I was arrested for "speed contesting on a highway" some years ago. I am as guilty as the next street racer, even though, technically, all I did was to speed up as there was a merge lane ahead and some clown took that as an invite to race and a cop saw it as the same. In the eyes of the law, street racing can be misinterpreted as well as you can see.
