i may have read it wrong, but did it say boats with motors over 25hp or with jet drives? so no more jet skis either? i'm glad our elected officials have time to sit around and come up with things like this.

Ummm thats everything. Shit even a Smart car could make 150bhp.

And seriously Pickups? WTF?

EDIT: I think someone made this up just to piss people off. I searched on Google and cant find anything about this, besides a link to the forum.

That is why I think it is funny as hell that they want to ban cars over 150 bhp. That is what...around 75% of the cars on the road today? And Honda VTEC getting banned...I wonder if she knows that VTEC (ex, not SI) d motors are for fuel economy, and not really performance.

It amazes me that somebody payed by us actually wasted their time coming up with this bill when theirs so many other problems.

I hope the people who elected her pick somebody else.
