ok, well if this is how NJ wants to play it and handle "collector cars" then fine. Even though i think it is a violation againts the 1st amendment (being that NJ is now telling you what you the car owner can consider a "collectiable". freedom of expression anyone?). You bring this up and u will have more luck yelling at your wall. 
So...IMO there should be a "hot rod" registration. For ppl that modify their cars; with in safty reasons of course. have a mileage restriction or w/e, but for those of us who want to soop up their rides and what not this would be great. it even works for ppl with lifted trucks and what-not. 
if you think about it; if you hammer down a strick mileage restriction (2.5K OR 3K or so a yr) there won't be as many ppl as they think signing up for it. Therefore no one can exploit it. 
I have seen posts on this issue with the word "Hot rod" as far as what NJ defines a car "collectiable, classic, historic, or hot rod", but there is no "Hot Rod" registration. 
i think this would solve so many issues. i dunno...
