I'm reposting this from a thread on the same subject in the SC300/400 sub-forum. This is yet another way to voice opinion on the matter. I keep hearing that the "public comment period" for the proposals have closed already but these links should still be used.

From the Jalopnik Article:
"To comment, you’ll want to go here, to the Federal Register, first. There you can find the full text of the proposal, and can find and cite the 40 CFR 1037.601(a)(3) section that’s hoping to exclude competition cars from the 40 CFR 1068.235 nonroad competition use exemption. It can’t hurt to be specific.
Then, you’ll go here, to Regulations.gov, and if you follow that link there that will take you to the specific page for the EPA document in question.
There, you’ll see this comment button:
How And Why You Can Weigh In On The EPA's Proposed Race Car Rules
Click there, and it’ll take you to the comment page. Follow the instructions from there, and feel free to copy and paste from our articles on this if that helps. At this moment, the document has nearly 225,000 comments, so let’s try and get that number up even higher so there’s no way the feds can ignore this.
Hopefully, if enough of us express concern at this proposal, and the overall lack of respect for small-scale racing that it represents, we will be able to stop this in its tracks before it can potentially cause the racing community any harm."

News from the last couple of days. The EPA has reversed its position. But aftermarket parts manufacturers may or may not still be a focus for them.
