Default EPA. Fines automotive tuner $18000. RPM act

Just watch a video PFI speed fined $18000 for selling aftermarket parts.
Not installing them.
Jegs and Summit out of stock on basic parts
Is this the reason manufacturers are having a hard time supplying parts for us racers?
I’m hearing it’s hard to get basic race parts for a small block Chevy.
I wonder if they can fine car owners for installation of parts.
Proof is in the pudding. The RPM act is hammering small companies for selling parts
Emissions proof stuff. Not going after the manufacturer. Killing the small guy.
Big brother is watching and trying to kill people ps lively hood.
EPA is like the IRS. Makes rules as they go.
Woke American is scary. Check out his video.
Scary stuff.

James ,You are misinterpreting what the RPM Act is.
First , the bill HR 3281 has not been passed yet , AND its purpose it to help protect motorsports from actions by the EPA regarding race only vehicles. .......It was written with much input by SEMA .
It will not however protect modifications on street driven cars that are subject to EPA rules.
Fire up that keyboard and contact your congressional representative and insist they back the bill.
We may not have much of a chance of it even going up for a vote in this congress , but it never hurts to make your representative know you're informed about it ,and let them know your vote will go to someone who will support it .

Here's a link to the SEMA site to contact your representative.

Pales in comparison to the 850k fine levied on the "Diesel Brothers".

The RPM act is intended to defeat the current EPA proposal to ban any automobile built for passenger car use for use in any racing activity. If the EPA ruling is enforced, then it basically saysd any vehicle that has or had a VIN number cannot legally by used by any form of motorsports.

biggest problem is not many people understand how much we pay in taxes in this country. renters do not understand they are paying the property and school taxes for the owner. sales tax on everything, fuel taxes and nobody looks at their paychecks to see how much tax comes out. goverment likes to hide taxes, like fuel tax, like including property tax in mortgage payment. and they believe the politicians when they say we are just raising taxes on people making over $400,000 and those big bad corporations. so many do not realize their pensions are tied to those big bad corporations profits
