EPA To Prohibit the Conversion of Street Cars into Race Cars

[Mike Pearson]

NHRA as the leading sanctioning body in drag racing should be leading this battle on the drag racing front. SEMA will be leading it for the high performance manufacturing industry. They should have the credibility to get the right people involved to get a stop to this issue. If this passes that would be the end of our sport.

Contact everyone you can in government about this insane "issue."

no wonder the EPA - FEMA and others bought so much ammunition over the last few years, looks like they will need it

Watching the primaries for the Democrats and all the Bernie Sanders supporters being under 30 and you know those folks will support the EPA. How many of the young guys (I know sexist - screw PC) you think are building a race car or interested in racing? 0% The country is changing.

I feel we can't even trust having a Republican president can save us going down this road. Need to take some tips from the NRA

Historically, prohibition makes the government look foolish and the "mechanics" wealthy.

Too numerous are the pieces describing how young people desiring their driver’s license are becoming fewer and fewer:

This does not bode well for a culture that allegedly values freedom and liberty.

Just remember that the original law banning the removal of catalytic converters went into effect in 1984. What party was the president then?

I just signed another petition concerning this matter on the PowerNation TV website.

Here is a link - http://powernationtv.com/post/say-no...to-motorsports

I sincerely hope that everyone that reads this forum will sign this petition.

Federal certification, which is what we are talking about, began in the late '60s as part of the Clean Air Act. That is how far back they can go with this, if they so chose.
