Street Legal High Performance Vehicle Registration

Nothing on their website convinces me they can do this. I always thought a special license plate would be good for us "mod" types, since we do not significantly contribute to smog. Why not charge us a fee, take the handcuffs off us and start going after those smokestacks factories that have the get out of jail free card right now from the current (cough) administration.

Believe it or not, in New Jersey it is actually pretty easy to get a modified car legally registered and inspected. If your car won't pass for emissions or some other reason you can get it registered as a collector's car. Any year is valid with any mods, but I doubt an all out race car would pass.

The catch is that you can't drive the car more than 3,000 miles a year. They told me to reset the trip meter and drive around the parking lot. It counted .1 mile or so and I got a fresh sticker. That was it. The hardest part was telling the people there that you want to register the car as a collector's, not a classic.

Why would I need somebody else to do that for me?
