You do a good job of projecting what it will be like down the road into 2005-07, but the fact is our math is still flawed.

Last year and this year there were cars being registered in ways not acceptable to the state. Folks were being creative in getting around the registration process. Now that they have either seen or heard of Titles Unlimited and others in handcuffs, those avenues are no longer are an option. SO those people will be looking to take advantage of the SB-100 down the road.

Many who would have done it other ways WON'T do so in the future.
Only when you take these into account you will realize that the demand for such registration may very well be into 1500-2000 range.
There are more automobiles, hot roads, Cobras here in California than anywhere else.

If the state does nothing about allowing these cars to be properly registered and driven, there WILL be people devising schemes to get around it once again.

If you put up a red light at an intersection that never turns green, someone eventually will run a red light.

If there was ever a time to annoy the folks in Sacramento, by phone calls, emails, letters, or even a massive rally around the capitol, this is it.

You are right I did not take into account the folks that are doing the alternative registration methods. Your comments just add fuel to the fire. I sent a message on the SB 100 topic a few weeks ago to my newly elected Representative and have heard nothing. I guess I will do the snail mail and certified delivery. Sometimes that will jar them into some sort of action.
