CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - EPA To Prohibit the Conversion of Street Cars into Race Cars

After a quick read, it appears the EPA is attempting to rescind an existing rule that allows for "nonroad engine" competition use. This amendment or attempt to rescind the exemption is supposedly meant to phase in from 2018 through 2027. EPA rules generally suffer from lack of funding and enforcement. But, most of the controversial EPA rules spend decades in Federal and State courts. SEMA may be taking the lead in this campaign because it is an authentic 501(c) 6, unlike some other 501(c) 6 organizations out there. This proposed rule hasn't a snow ball's chance in hell of ever becoming an enforceable rule. It's discriminatory on it's face because it goes after the automobiles and does not include all the other motorsports activities. And of course, does any one here really want to mess with NASCAR? Keep on racing boys and girls.
