Houston Car Meet Bans Modern Muscle Cars After Repeated Safety Issues
-
Houston Coffee and Cars car meet banned all modern muscle cars (Mustangs, Camaros, Chargers, Challengers) due to recurring issues with burnouts and reckless driving when leaving events
-
Last fall they had temporarily banned those cars for the same reason, but safety issues persisted at a large event this past weekend
-
Video shows a BMW doing burnouts with kids nearby; organizers say they have to ban muscle cars to keep places willing to host events
-
The article questions whether the ban should be so broad, as other sports cars like BMWs and Toyotas have done burnouts too
-
Ultimately it's up to muscle car owners to self-police if they want to keep attending, by behaving maturely and not using public roads for reckless stunts
