That's not the point of the thread. I too agree that all our cars together don't have impact compared to other modes of transportation. The point of the thread is that our hobby is in jeapardy because "one size fits all" legislation is being passed that will make it impossible to build cars like ours with classic powerplants. Right now I am planning a possible move to Atlanta and it will be very difficult or damn near impossible to get my car to pass let alone titled. The article shows California getting a lot of leadership/power in these decisions.
I would love to compute the carbon footprint of all kitcars/hot rods as compared to one 747 passenger jet with a 1:1 allotment per passenger. I think I need to start a movement!!
