Project Eliminate Racing Activity

Saw this in the local paper last week:

Why is it that a guy in a sports car has his plates taken but a guy on a Harley can run without Cat.or Muffler and usually park on the sidewalk as well is fine ?

So the purpose of this initiative is to prevent street racing but they target enthusiasts that take the time and spend the money to race their vehicles legally.

I understand that they may have rightly cited the guy for improper exhaust but targeting people who go to the track seems counter to the message they are supposed to be pushing.
