As much as I disdain big brother I have never seen the rational ( other than vanity ) for a car that will exceed much over the max speed limit.

Leave aside the fact that a number of us take our cars to the track on a regular basis and don't want to own two cars to do it - why should your inability to to see the reason for a powerful car affect me in any way? As long as I don't drive in an unsafe manner on public roads, I fail to see how my choice of vehicle is anyone else's business - and if you think banning under-the-hood performance is going to prevent or even slightly reduce the amount of unsafe driving in the world, you're badly mistaken.

I've seen enough ricers driving 4 cylinder cars with fart cannons and rear spoilers on them do enough dangerous stuff to know this is true.

What you are missing is that he deems your driving over the speed limit to be reckless. And should not be allowed.

Being a safe driver, you are in the minority as oppose to the number of less than 30 year olds I see driving around town and neighborhoods like they are in Le Mans.
