Sacramento, CA — The state will soon stop allowing the sale of new gas-powered mowers, leaf blowers, generators and pressure washers.

They all fall under a broad category defined as small gas-powered engines. Hoping to reduce carbon emissions, Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law to ban the sale of the new equipment that has small off-road engines by the next few years.

State regulators had already been moving in that direction, but the law signed on Saturday removes any doubt, as it orders regulators to implement the change by January 1, 2024. It will prompt a move to electric powered devices.

California earlier announced it will disallow the sale of gas-powered cars and trucks by 2035.

California officials say there are an estimated 16.7 million small engines in the state. There are around 13-million passenger vehicles.

Soon they will say to use battery powered generators. Idiots.

It sure did AND it’s just the tip of the ICEBURG ..

I would like to remind all the members on this forum that vote LIBTARD,…..you are contributing to our DEMISE . A BIG THANK YOU ….

The track will have to install electrical plugs in every pit....Yeah right!

What about generators factory installed in RV,s?

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

I remember being impressed by politicians when I was a young boy. Wow, what I've learned!!!!!!!!
Gonna put a lot of service tech's, etc., out of work.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Let's see how the landscaping businesses will survive and how the forestry service will fight fires with electric chainsaws!
Do they even have a clue how electric vehicles and devices will tax the state's electric grid and infrastructure? Wait until transformers start to blow up in residential areas and create chaos.

Keep electing idiots in positions in government and you will see California go back to the days of Fred Flintstone!

F--k Newsom! Tell all race teams that pro or sportsman and they will have a few choice words for all politicians!

So what's next, Motorcycles? That'll be a good one.

Dave,

They are way ahead of you. Zero Motorcycles are manufactured in California. All electric. $14 to $18,000 a copy.

More climate change hysteria driven by the radical left. What’s next? There are over 1,000,000 motor boats registered in California burning diesel fuel and gasoline. Is the government going to tell these citizens your boating investment and re-sale value is now worth “zero.” Be careful who you vote for!

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Well folks, I called this a over a year ago, Americans are acting like sheep, stand in line for the shot, it is not a vacine,wear the burka, and obey. This is what you get,Tyranny. Pilots air traffic controllers etc,, will not take the shot, true American patriots. It is time to stand up to these commies. Eddie you must be proud of your commie governor and this idiot you call the president..

Well this accelerate quicker than a factory stock I am sorry, I will be going to class racer jail. Will race cars be next? Please move if this is in the wrong place. Tom

Perhaps this is the result of people daring to re-call him from office recently. Seeing as the okkepied repuik of n.j. copies what happens in cal. I wonder when these ideas come here if the current ruler gets re-elected.. John Kissel

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Honda already pulling big generators And probably all products. Yamaha has already pulled their 6300 inverters and I bet they pull out too! Ca made it impossible to reach their emission standards. Who gave Ca power over federal standards? It’s illegal ! Feds have no B a ls !! I’ve been on generator since 7:45 this morning, power is in now.

Liberals slowly and methodically killing all forms of motorsports. When do we take a stand and how long before NHRA pulls all events from these so called "green states"?

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Check out this 66 Impala. 550 HP.. Wonder if it will run the index ? LOL
Things like this just AMAZE me, but... it's the future I guess.
My son owns a couple year old Tesla. He loves it. It runs like a SOB, and it's never been back to the dealer with any issues. He tells me the drive motor only has like 20 moving parts ! Is that possible ?

The great thing about America is we have the opportunity to make our voices heard.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Yes they are, and some are here on this forum and race with us. There will be a day when racing at POMONA is OVER ……probably sooner than later ….They will look at each other with total SHOCK and DISMAY …..THANKS in advance …

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Nah. They'll repeat exactly what the government and media tell them to say and they'll argue that it's the right thing until they're blue in the face. They'll move out of their blue state to a red one and then try to destroy that state.

The cycle never ends.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Carbon emissions from small engines can’t amount to much. When California stops generating power by burning fuel then they will be doing something. We are being led by idiots. THis country is really going down quicker than I figured.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

I'm old now, but I've seen a lot of changes in my lifetime. The world is going to continue to change no matter what we think or how we vote. We just need to get used to it.

ICE (internal combustion engines) are going to be history. Much of Europe has already past the necessary legislation. The US will follow.

By the way, small gas engines, like what we have on our lawn mowers, pollute more than most new automobile engines.

Hard to say what the world will be like in 30 years, but it will certainly be a lot different.

We tried to recall the tyrant but he bought enough union and illegal votes to beat the recall.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Either the majority has won the right to govern or people like us don't get out the vote.

Is there a silent majority?

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Why are Trump rallies attended by tens of thousands?
Why are Conservative Cable News and Radio shows rated number one in viewership ratings?
Why are forums like ClassRacer.com predominately conservative?
Why are NASCAR fans predominately conservative?
Why is President Biden's approval rating only 38%?

Yet the left wing is in office.

California steers towards more electrical power needs and away from nuclear power. Expect more blackouts. Ray

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

It's an European wet dream and plan.
They expect to do so, however, scientists have made the requirements models and studies and told the various governments that it is sustainable.
They have northern cold regions in Europe that will require electrical power to be transferred from the electrical grids from other european. countries.

Seven scenarios for a 100% renewable European power system were modelled for 2050. Mass mobilization of Europe’s solid biomass and biogas resources would be required. 90% more generation and 240% more transmission capacity would be needed than today. Costs would be $610BUSD per year, 40% more than the current electrical grid.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Small engines might not be as effective as some cars but they are not burning anywhere near as much fuel as an automobile. I use less than a gallon a week in my lawn equipment. I burn 40 gallons of fuel in my truck weekly.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

When they can use unicorn farts to run electric plants, this will all be fine.

Just as most cities have "no go" zones, enter at your own peril, we are creating "no go" states. California being one of them.

Making it impossible or intolerable to even visit, let alone live or do business there.

Enjoy your utopia.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Looks like a some people on the left coast did not think that one thru.

R.I.P. California

Glad I got to enjoy that state ( 1980-1990 ) before it was destroyed....

You do know that the New Tesla Plaid model stock, no mods, street tires is 9.30 150mph in the quarter right?

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

Actually, those small engines pollute significantly more per gallon than a car. Remember no emission controls, no high energy ignition, no ECM to control fuel and catalytic converter.

I am not for all these rules but we need to look at practical solutions, example, battery leaf blower, weed whacker, but large lawn mower No No No, same as chain saw.

The RV industry in small motorhomes are going to no seperate generator, they put in a auto engine start that charges the many batteries, also added solar panels and batteries can run an A/C for up to 4 hours without engine start.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

My gas only generator quit at the beginning of this season and the only available replacement was a dual fuel unit that ran on propane as well as gas. I didn't understand why until now.
A lot of stuff like this is poorly thought out because the ideas come from politicians. Politicians are not real people who understand how to live, work and have fun. Lotta people here don't like 46, and that's OK with me. But at least he has a shotgun and a '67 Stingray. 45 don't drive.


EDIT: Cali can't manage it's masses of folks from South of the Boarder as is, how do they expect to get all the gas powered equipment out of the landscaping industry???

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

People will either buy their generators out of state or through the inevitable black market. Its like gun bans, resourceful people find a way to go around the laws and get what they want.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

If you don't want Biden, Harris, Shumer and Pelosi governing our nation stand up and be counted. Talk is cheap, actions mean change. Get these phonies out of office.

Re: Did this just happen no generators?
 

This is paybacks from Newsom for the recall, he is dropping the hammer on us all now. It’s great I wish I could leave but I can’t, John

How big of a generator do you need to charge it between rounds? Tom
