I kind of like this. There are way too many bikes in my town just revving like they are at the starting line of a MotoGP race. And the **** boxes that just run with out an exhaust, not because they modded it that way, but because their 1990 dodge caravan's exhaust headers just rusted through. If's fucken annoying and it doesn't even need to be that way, because like in our cars simply removing the muffler doesn't really add any performance so you can keep your car, bike, truck at a reasonable volume and still have it sound good.

You say that now until you start getting hit with fines because some cops thinks your car is to loud

I don't care for the states nazi tactics though on how they're proposing to deal with the loud vehicles.

I'd prefer not to move away from California if I can help it (I can drive my car year round in beautiful weather), we just need to get more people to vote differently. Maryland appears to have pretty stringent smog laws and is controlled by Democrats too. Wouldn't surprise me to see them follow in California's footsteps.

I'm with you on this one. As far as this effort goes, this is beatable. The rules can be broken down and exploit its weakness. I know how to beat this. What got us here are the many idiots and take overs and is the proot cause like you said. Im not worried though.

This place has so much to offer. So much to do, so much to see, and so much to soak in. I have the ocean to the West, the mountains or desert to the East, San Diego and the boarder to the South, and the Redwoods to the North. Not to mention the wines and spirits it produces. Cheers!

He can think my car is loud all he wants, just like he can think I was speeding all he wants. What I was actually doing is another thing. This is also why I have exhaust cut outs so I don't have to be obnoxiously loud all the time.
