Please Support Legislation to Overturn EPA Racecar Regulation

 

 While the below alert from ORBA address’s converting street cars to race cars, the attempt by the EPA to do this will also affect OHV.  It will follow that one buys a street legal bike but can’t use if for racing.  Say one puts on knobbies or maybe takes off the mirrors…Oops, it’s now converted for a use other than intended as a street bike.
Do you have five minutes to spare?  Please take action  in letting your voice be heard that you support the “Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act of 2016” (RPM Act).

 

Please support Legislation to Overturn EPA Racecar Regulation and our friends at SEMA by contacting your legislator. This is important to our industry.

Congress Introduces Bill to Ensure that Motor Vehicles May Be Modified Into Racecars 

 

 

U.S. Reps. Patrick McHenry (R-NC), Henry Cuellar  (D-TX), Richard Hudson (R-NC), Bill Posey (R-FL) and Lee Zeldin (R-NY) have introduced the bipartisan “Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act of 2016” (RPM Act), which makes clear that it has always been legal to modify a street vehicle into a racecar used exclusively at the track. The practice was unquestioned until last year when the EPA proposed a new regulation which would make this activity illegal. SEMA supports the RPM Act and urges you to do so as well.
