Honestly, I think if this is the narrative they want to take, I like it a lot better than this VPD bullshit. That being said, I have Hawk HP+ pads paired with good summer tires. I'll bet that I can stop a lot quicker on a single axle than a entire mid-sized SUV can. I can guarantee that it has saved me from tboning some dumbass Richmond drivers (
).
I'd love for the government to re-evaluate modifications that provide a greater benefit, such modifications would be brakes, suspension tuning, and lights. All of which can provide a greater benefit than OEM. There's the argument that can be made that a properly modified vehicle can get out of dangerous situations better than a stock car - simply because it is more capable. Like Speedstar, I think it's absolutely ridiculous the things they are saying contribute to fatal deaths.
