Id like to get a court order keeping it open pending a 'teen death while street racing because the only track within 100 miles has been shut down' study.
I ALWAYS had a battle with smog techs on my 73 F250. It was made in Oct 72 and thus did not have the smog equipt mandated to go into effect Jan 1, 1973. I don't know the exact year they made it a model year thing.
If these safety inspectors at the tracks become trained monkeys for CARB then fk the tracks. That's like Nazi Germany and Stalin's Russia where neighbor ratted on neighbor.
