CHP VIN Assignment - Check
Brake & Light Inspection - Check
BAR Referee Sticker - Check

Back to the DMV tomorrow to hand in all my homework and hopefully get my plates and tags. Yea!

At the BAR ref today, which is located at a technical/industrial arts type college, I must have had 50 future mechanics surround my car watching it go through the smog test and as I waited (and waited and waited some more) for my BAR sticker. I got the "What does it cost?" question, the "How big is the engine" question, the "What kind of transmission?" question, the "Is it real?" question, the "What do you have for rear gears?" question and the "Is that chrome paint?" question....multiple, multiple times. I'm exhausted.

The smog tech guessed that my CO emissions would be 3.5-4.0 before the test, where most cars today get 0.0 or 0.1. I got an 8. He's never seen an 8 before, supposedly.
