Sounds like all race cars will have to be pre 1967

So what is your point Stanley? 4 years wasn't enough time to drain the swamp, Trump needed 4 more. These government agency's are full of tree hugging commies.

Randy,
My point was that after 14 month I have no heard of any NHRA Stock or Super Stock racer having a problem because of this. Have you?

Stan,

No not yet but doesn't mean it isn't on the radar. I just built a new car and hope to be able to race it.

The EPA wants to go after ANY vehicle with a V.I.N. that has any modifications done to defeat the original emmisions equipment, even if the vehicle is only used for drag racing, autocross, mud bogging, drifting, etc., etc.

That's why gearheads, racers, etc. from all forms of motorsports should be concerned.

As posted above, this basically means all 1968 and newer vehicles could be affected ( and maybe some older than that that had smog pumps )

In other words, 99.x % of full body drag cars and trucks will be affected because not everyone in Stock and Super Stock races a " Body in White " race car that never had a VIN
