    Its been a while, but I recall finding the specific CA law that prohibits race numbers on the street.

    I have heard that too...

    I've got vinyl numbers and class lettering on my car. I occasionally drive it on the street. I'm afraid to park it outside my office though because of theft. Once I get a stated value policy with Hagerty for it I'll drive it more...

    I'm not worried about LEO as I rarely speed in it on the street. It's just too obvious a target being bright red, loud and having race numbers on it. I'm not that stupid...

    My CRX is bright green with vinyl numbers and a lot of stickers. No issues thus far, though I make sure that if it sits outside, it is on beater wheels and the battery is out of the car.

    I daily drove my 95 Saturn SC2 with all of its race day apparel and never had an issue. This was in Indiana though. I got fewer strange looks than I thought I would.

    Those weren't "strange looks," those were "pitying looks."

    I've left my HPDE numbers on my DD for years now. Never had any trouble other than always answering "Do you race that thing?"
