Someone should start a web-site that maps where these mobile ambush stations are set up on a daily basis. Spread the site name around all the CA car sites. If it got big enough it would send a message that car guys are paying attention.
The BAR is claiming that they are doing this to gauge the effectiveness of current smog protocols and procedures.
But it is our tax money, it is our time, and this sort of testing is skewed because they DO profile cars.
I still have a hard time believing that you MUST by law submit to this sort of testing against your wishes.
If anyone has proof of the law requiring this, please show us.
found it damn bastards,

here is a pic of one they had in so cal so people know what to expect if they see this ahead. http://my350z.com/forum/southern-california/469276-beware-of-chp-smog-check-checkpoints.html
Insane. The amount of $$$ being spent to single people out one by one must be astronomical.
Of course they will argue that they gaining statistics for the effectiveness of the current SMOG Check protocols in the state of CA.
I just have a hard time believing that this testing is 100% random and "high profile" cars like ours are not being targeted.

Just as random as traffic stops at the border for mexicans. Im guessing they'd be stopping all mustangs as fast as they pull over black dudes in Rocklin.

It'd be interersting to see my car go up on that mobile smog dyno voluntarily. No carb numbers for most all parts, no smog equipment, long tube headers with no cats, and have it burn cleaner than some stock foxes - illegal as fuck. Then Blast the video all over youtube...
