Ten years removed from my SB100 ordeal, I still have a bad taste left in my mouth. I'd rather buy a Cobra with an existing SB100 exemption, if I had to do it all over again.
Long story, which I detailed here a very long time ago, I remember having to chase around a FedEx truck driver for my REVISED SB100 certificate, because at my original visit on January 2nd, 2008, I believe, the DMV mixed up my paperwork with another gentleman applying for an SB100 exemption. He got my SB100 certificate and I got his SB100 certificate. And that was just the darn initial DMV visit, never mind the BAR referee "kicking me to the curb" for failing to do something (paperwork or mechanical, can't recall now), thus having to make another appt. and come back.
I'm sure getting a dimwit at the DMV or a difficult BAR inspector are issues that haven't disappeared or been resolved in the last 10 years.
