UPDATE: Put your race cars back on your trailers for another 45 days: Senate and House pass 45-day measure to keep government open

"...it's a perfect opportunity to relive the days of playing 'Need for Speed Underground' in a real setting."

WASHINGTON—Race car drivers across the nation are taking to public roads as the longstanding warning of 'For Off-Road Use Only' is rendered obsolete due to the government shutdown. This has left many in the racing community with no alternative but to seek revenge on CARB and the EPA for years of unjust practices by staging a protest, using their race cars as vehicles of dissent on the streets. The sight of high-performance race cars navigating regular streets has become a common occurrence today. From urban thoroughfares to winding country roads, the roar of engines once confined to racetracks now echoes throughout our towns and cities.

Race car driver Mark Thompson expressed his thoughts on the situation, saying, "It's surreal to be driving a race car on public roads. These machines are designed for precision on the track, not for everyday traffic. But with the government shutting down it's a perfect opportunity to relive the days of playing 'Need for Speed Underground' in a real setting."

Another driver, Sarah Rodriguez, shared a similar sentiment, stating, "While it's thrilling to bring the thrill of racing to the streets, safety remains a top priority. We're taking extra precautions and abiding by traffic rules, even though our cars will smoke anybody brave enough to step up."

Local law enforcement agencies have been keeping a close eye on the racing community to keep a list of who to harass once the government decides to re-open. They are fuming that car enthusiasts across the nation are getting their way. As the government shutdown continues, the nation watches in fascination and concern as race car drivers take advantage of this new reality.
