We have this great service provided by the good people in Sacramento... Random CHP roadside compliance inspections. If you get corralled by one of these with cat bypass pipes they will promptly impound your car and haul it to some distant yard where it will cost $3k to get it back. Fun in the golden state. 
I often pass by these checkpoints with a car hauler standing by loaded with hot rod Hondas and Subis. |
Do they hang out near race tracks?
Never hear of this before, something new to consider when upgrading stuff.
Pretty soon you'll need cats for your butt in CA too they way the environmentalists keep dreaming up new revenue sources.
If beans were outlawed from restaurants here though, it would be fine with me 
FYI Dave: Me and Half of "Team Yellow" will be at the Nov 24th Auto-X at Qualcomm.....more fun.
