ND laws on RHD cars?
-
I saw some lady driving a RHD subaru station wagon yesterday!!! with ND plates, so they have to be legal... in order to register, even though I herd otherwise
-
Jim i would agree with you. and if all else fails just call the DMV and ask them. 701.328.2581 is the number you could call and ask.
-
Okay thanks guys, I'll give them a call on Monday to be sure. Hope to see some of you out there!
Jim- I think I saw you last weekend when I was driving through Fargo, coming back from Chicago to pick up my Eclipse. Man am I ever jealous of the roads you have there..

As long as the SKyline is legal in ur state u shouldn't have any problems.

You will be just fine to bring your car down to the states. You're only visiting anyway. It would be a different story if you planned on moving here. But as a visitor, you should be just fine. If and when you call the DMV, make sure you state that your visiting only.

I worked on a RHD subi wagon last fall with around that many miles on it. I think it was postal use back then. Not sure if it is still around though.
As of the RHD being legal....as long as it passes US crash tests and emissions of that year, it doesn't matter which side you drive on.

Does a car have to be legal to drive in the US even if it is registered in another country and they aren't a resident? Oh, I almost forgot, Nissan rocks! Hope to see you and the skyline down here for the autox.

i've seen an nsx driving in town a few times, with plates on it, I think there is also a jag, you're golden
one the prev mentions posts, we cannot take our cars to germany and drive them, they have to pass their tests to be on the road, including absolutely no rust, there is also a scandinavian country that makes you put on big 4 inch different colored lights on the back to make it legal, plus a bunch of other shit, SOme dude has had to do it to like 6 different Saleens

the rust thing comes from a German family I know, they have to register every 2 years and pass the rust test and several others or their car is pulled from the road until it is fixed
Cannon ball runs were non-sanctioned fun races for people that got together and ended up with publicity, the whole concept was to prove that it is safe to drive at high speeds on the roads, but to win you have to speed, if you look into the history of the cannonball run you'll find that they ran into problems with police, because of what they were doing. it hasn't been run for 3 times knowingly, and then the usa network did their own reality show on it. That is also the u.s. version.
The Gumball 3000 may be what you are referring to, www.gumball3000.com the whole point is to do something illegal (speed) and not get caught. Now if you do something illegal, you can do it, until you get caught. I bet good money that they don't get licensed just for a race, I bet they run it without a care for registration, or the legalities.
we can do one here too. Fargo, to gf, minot, williston, dickinson, bismarck, fargo.
as far as the scandinavian country, neither gumball or cannonball ran thru any of them, the article is either in 5.0 mustang or mustang monthly, I'm not digging out back issues to prove a point.
