EPA Seeks to Prohibit Race Cars

[Lynn]

Plenty of double talk from the EPA going on: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2016/...ans/?refer=news

I will be the first to admit I was wrong about the EPA back in the 70's. Without the EPA mandates on car emissions, the automakers would have kept making cars the cheapest way possible. We might still have carbs on new cars. The EPA made the automakers find a way to build cars that pollute less. The automakers said it couldn't be done each time. Face it, because of the EPA we drive amazing computer controlled, more powerful, more fuel efficient, cleaner cars. That is the way it should be for mass produced vehicles for the masses.
HOWEVER, the race car world and the pre-emission vehicles is such minuscule part of the big picture. The current approach simply makes no sense. Cars modified for off road use (and taken off the road) need to be left alone.
