I suggest everyone here join!

You don't want to become like Australia (where I am from), where almost all modifications are illegal. I pay taxes, do community work as well as employment and school - however, I'm a bad guys because my XB Falcon has bigger wheels than stock. Ludicrous. Don't let it happen to you!

Thanks to everyone who has signed up! ;-) Interestingly since first posting this, I have personally noted what seems to be an increase in media coverage of proposed legislation regarding automobiles, and none of it is in our best interests. This may just be due to my own heightened awareness of this right now or it may be that there is indeed a legitimate increase in government regulatory activity, (please note "Bad Bird, Matt Barr's comments).

Whatever the case, rules around our hobby are changing and we need to be on top of this if we want to have any say at all. I'm honestly not an alarmist (!) and I'm not here to "stir the pot", but I know from what I have read that we need to show our support for the SEMA Action Network, (SAN), as it is the best and most organized voice in North America working to protect our automotive interests.

Okay everyone, let's get those sign ups going, and please tell your buddies too!!! It just takes a minute! The link again is: http://www.semasan.com/san/join.aspx

BTW, it would be awesome to hear that the moderators and our more "high profile" auto-crossers and suppliers here are all signed up. What do ya say?

Thanks All,
Gavin.

Have been thinking of joining.... recently got serious since they got rid of collector plates for cars over 25 years..... Now i have to get both my 81 & 85 Grand Prix's emission's yearly! i haven't even put 3k miles on my 85 in 10 years! They lowered the emissions standard's as well pretty much making it impossible for my car's to pass! I talked to local muffler shop guy who said it was their way of getting older cars off the road...
