Help Protect Race Cars

Support for the RPM Act has been gearing up, as eight attorney generals spoke up against the EPA’s measures to stop race cars from being built. The RPM Act is the only way to stop the EPA proposal and protect race cars for today as well as tomorrow. For those who don’t know, the EPA has introduced a proposal to expand the Clean Air Act. This injunction would prohibit the conversion of street cars into dedicated racecars.

This would not only change the way enthusiasts enjoy and modify our cars, but it would essentially kill off motorsports as we know them. The fight to protect race cars is still being fought, but the support from these attorney generals helps. In their letter to legislation, the attorneys general stated:

we strongly urge the U.S. EPA to remove the aforementioned language referencing vehicles ‘used solely for competition’ from the final rule. Not only is this language inconsistent with the federal Clean Air Act, but any purported benefit from this change would pale in comparison to the economic damage caused by this regulation.

Since then over 170,000 enthusiasts and professional responded with signatures against the new proposal. Defending race cars and protecting our right to modify vehicles has been the primary goal since day one, and there’s still work to be done. In order to stop the over-reaching regulation from the Environmental Protection Agency, SEMA needs more support to help protect race cars.
