Congressional bill to prevent the EPA from being able to stop you from modding your car. It’s time to act!

As some of you know there is new wording in EPA regulations that could cripple the aftermarket industry. Aftermarket companies will go out of business, and you won’t be able to get parts anymore. But, a bill has been introduced in Congress to prevent the EPA from being able to crack down. The RPM bill (cute huh?). Please take the 2 minutes to follow this link and send a litter to your representative. Seriously, it will take you two minutes, you don’t actually write the letter.

This bill needs to happen. It effects all of us. Make your voice heard. Don’t forget, the Government works for us. They need their marching orders.

Please pass this along anywhere and everywhere you can think of. We need as many of these written as possible.

Thanks!

Aww, yeah.

I even added in a paragraph about how converted street vehicles are used by manufacturers to test cutting-edge technology. Anti-lock brakes were originally created for racing, after all.

Apparently I live in some kind of dimensional rift. No matter what I put for my street address, it's not valid and won't generate the letter.

Done. And proud of my NC lawmaker. Just because they don't enforce a law doesn't mean it shouldn't be addressed.

" Thank you for contacting me regarding H.R. 4715, the Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act of 2016. I appreciate hearing from you and welcome this opportunity to respond.

H.R. 4715 was introduced by Rep. Patrick T. McHenry (R-NC) on March 7, 2016. This bill would prohibit certain regulations of the Clean Air Act from affecting any motor vehicle that is used solely for competition purposes. H.R. 4715 has been referred to the House Energy and Commerce Committee. While I do not serve on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, I will be sure to keep your thoughts in mind should this bill come before the House of Representatives for a vote.

Thank you again for contacting me. Please do not hesitate to do so again in the future.


Sincerely,

Bill Huizenga
Member of Congress"

What does H.R. 4715 Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act of 2016 do for the average joe when this says its written for...

"...converting street vehicles to racecars used exclusively in competition..."

It does not help the person who runs track days. Only professional shops.

Sent! Just so happens that my wife graduated from high school with our local representative so I hope he recognizes our names and gives it a little extra consideration if he gets to vote on this bill.
