yay for canada and no emissions laws!!!!
Yay for Montreal and Toronto they got em!

Wisconsin where I live doesn't have them! My rings went and the whole area at the stop lights would be full of smoke. I single handedly did 2 years worth of smoke in 1500 miles of driving my motor that way.

yep, there strict, i can understand the emmisions testing, but the carb numbers are stupid

the hahn turbo, and any other well tuned turbo system can pass the sniffer test, its stupid to make it have a carb number just so they can make money of people


thats ok, my race car was always gonna be a trailer toy anyways

I am so glad CALI is earthquake prone, maybe one day Cali will have an earthquake, and send things falling off the shelf and knock some lawmaker on the head hard enough to stop all the gay *** emission laws, or just fall into the ocean.

believe it or not, the emmision laws make sense, its the carb numbers that dont

the carb numbers are simply an excuse to make money off people using smog as an excuse, they price for getting a carb number is so high that thousands and thousands of parts for all differant makes and models never get carb numbers, not cause they wont pass the sniffer test, but because the companys decided they'll never make back the amount ofmoney it takes to get a carb number

the city i live in is at an elevation of 200 feet. Just to the east of here is the second largest and second tallest mountain range in the country, the sierra nevadas. I can drive for 2 hours to the east on windy roads and be at an elevation of more then 5000 feet. With that being said, im looking to the east right now and i cant even see an outline of the mountains.12 years ago when i was 12, you could wake up everyday and see the entire mountain range in detail, and the foothills below them,you could even see the crossat the top of a hill thats only 30 miles away from my house, today you cant even see the hill. It looks as if it was foggy this morning and it never really cleared, except that its pollution. To make it worse were just starting to get some of the smoke over here from the san fransisco fires. We have a very large number of people thatdie every year from the air quality.

So the smog laws arent the problem, its the people that are writing them.

The same people that thinkthat the small percentage of the population that rides a dirtbike maybe 2 or three times a week for maybe 6 hours a week tops, are responsible for the air quality.

If they would get off there asses and recommend real ways to fix it, instead of the bs of the carb laws, it might actually change something, as of right now they just want us to think that there trying to make it better
