Re: WTF
As somebody or other once said - silence is assent. So speak up and prod a politician.
Let your congressperson, senators and White House know you don't like this stupid stupid thing. You don't have to write them the Gettysburg Address. See at the bottom for what I wrote. Paste and copy if you like. If you have a small business or job that would be affected, note that. Write too much and the intern who actually reads it will space out and go TL;DR.
Enough public pressure and this will be defeated (at least for now).

I am strongly opposed to the proposed "Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Fuel Efficiency Standards for Medium- and Heavy-Duty Engines and Vehicles--Phase 2." issued by the EPA on February 8. This is because they will ban any engine modifications of street cars and even conversion of street cars into race-only racecars.
This will enormously damage the motorsports hobby and industry in the United States. Many millions of motorsport participants and fans will be affected. As well, a very large number of jobs will be lost.
I am an active motorsports participant and a voter. Please tell the EPA to eliminate these provisions of the proposed regulations.
