Now I know it's not Ford related, well not directly, but I found this Jalopnik piece interesting. Bay Area Police in an effort to crackdown on street racing and other automotive hijinx have started to pull over and inspect cars they feel may be illegally modified. I don't know what they mean by Illegally modified, maybe parts that aren't CARB certified or are unsafe like racing slicks.
The article says that they are training officers to identify illegal mods, and Jalopnik talks about one of his friends whose Mitsu Evo was pulled over because of the factory wing.Again this reminds me of Gary's article at the Garage on street racing
We've all done it, street racing, public displays of horsepower like burnouts or donuts, but when does it go too far. Read Gary's article and Jalopnik's piece.
I know I've done some stupid things in my youth, some I stil brag about today, how about you? What's the craziest thing you've done behind the wheel?
