    You COME ON with it!!!

    I spoke with someone last night, who's main criteria was the ability to put it back on the street...this one have a 'streetable' title??

    That's different in some states apparently???

    lol....If I'm reading that correctly, there many ways to "come on". I do my best to make sure they get a good look at my rear as I pull away. Have I seen you at the Glen?

    This one does NOT have a streetable title. The other issue is with the OBDI (up to '95) in a '98 chassis, which will never pass inspection in my state (NY). Not sure about others.

    Believe me, if I could street-drive this I'd def. keep it. I once had a State Trooper (good friend) show up at my house with plates, stating "let's take the 355 to the party!". Alas, it only had slicks, and rain was coming. That was my only chance.

    Bummer.

    Only the '95s have titles- thereafter they were im ported on MSOs only.

    I thought there was a change somewhere in the series on that issue, thanks!

    I also thought "roll bars on the street" were an issue....???

    Pad it and try not to bang your head too often??

    If you're referring to David Scott's car, it's a 348CH- they all had titles.

    That's what I do, but I readily admit that it's a dicey proposition (and one of the many reasons why I just drive to/from the track).
    Even if you have a title, there are lots of additional reasons why many states would probably frown on tagging a Challenge car- how about the lack of mufflers, horn, turn signals, DOT-spec seatbelts, etc., etc.?
