More for the straight 1/8 and 1/4 mile tracks these days.

Even worse, time travel is still illegal.

I find it odd that 80-100 is a severe punishment by 101-200 is only a bit more severe.

So people in a 70mph zone (maximum speed limit in Virginia) would now have a 15mph buffer instead of 10. Meanwhile, some drivers in Texas legally drive at speeds that would get you sent to jail in Virginia.

Meanwhile in Texas...

good, I can use that extra 5 mph to get the hell out of Virginia faster

In the course of recent events, I don't know wether to support this, though getting in jail simply for speeding is ridiculous in my eyes seeing what other kinds of crimes are not awarded with it.

Driving at those speeds on a public road is, to me, the same as firing a gun into a crowd of people.

The smallest bump is enough at that speed. The front lifts, you hit the side, and gone.

That was more of a karate spin kick than a drift.

Masterful

CEO of Fiat, not FCA. Jason Stoicevich. And yes sales that stand out and stories pass.

For the sake of the audience who wants further detail, I figured I'd chime in here.

It's less about localities halting seizures, and more about localities who don't allow police to keep any of the proceeds of those seizures. Once the police can't profit from the seizures, their proclivity to jump through all the legal hoops declines significantly.

Usually when someone says "it's a race car for the street" it's complete and utter bullshit, but not in the case with this insane 500 Abarth. Fiat took the already-crazy standard 500 Abarth and set their insane-o-meter for warp drive.

Because, in several jurisdictions, the locals wrote laws prohibiting this practice, only for the police forces to switch to using the federal jurisdiction to continue doing exactly what the locals just tried to outlaw.

I think that's Alain Prost in the first picture... I'm pretty sure that's a Lambo in your picture and no idea who the guy washing it is (Early picture of Balboni maybe?)!

You, sir, are a goddamn American hero.

The machine is tightly wedged between 2 metal brackets for the center console.
