New York is the shit. They dont make completley stupid irrelevant laws like cali does. Cali is the single state that has fucked us over from getting many many many badass cars...I'm disapointed that I cant go out and get a Ford Falcon turbo, a SkyRine (even if I'm not a nutswinger, I'll admit they are good cars), missing out on a buttload of European diesels, Renault Clio...etc etc etc.

im courious as well, what exactly was he doing? Street racing is illegal, but a website talking about it is no diffrent then a preformance shop selling the parts to do illegal stuff. They dont force you to put it on your car and drive it on the street, although thats what is more then likly going to happen, kinda like outta sight out of mind. Tampa racing is about racing, granted a portion of it is illegal, but that doesnt mean the website made it happen. Hell i figured a website like this or the other one would be something the cops want around. We talka bout enough illegal racing shit on here all the times that the cops could learn more about where we go and stuff.

To my knowledge there wasn't much difference between Dragva and TR... Other than the fact that TR has more members and more specified forums. Kudos TR staff... They had an article about the people getting hem'd up w/ all the tickets and a pic taken from one of those camera's on the side of the highway that showed all the cars being stopped w/ something like 18 police cars. But hell I don't even think that is illegal considering its accessible from any PC. Still wondering tho.

Okay, then I'll point fingers at the CARB board...

I know many cars werent availible because LHD conversions werent profitable enough to make everything work with it etc, but mostly emissions have kept back the "100%" of many cars
