Australia now requires a "supercar" license.

Power to weight ratio requirement is close to a stock ZL1.

And here's the scary bit:
"South Australia is also going to make it illegal to drive any UHPV with active safety systems deactivated. Drivers will face fines of up to $5000 Australian ($3300) if they disable an ‘automated intervention system’ such as stability control, traction control, or automated emergency braking."

Australia has become an ultra police state. From Draconian gun laws to the Covid lockdowns and prosecutions, they are turning Australia into the prison it was first intended to be.
