This is just one of many rules the EPA makes up on their own.Sooner or later if we as a country don't put binders on the EPA they will just keep doing illegal laws that suit their liberal agenda.
Semper Fi !!!
A “power grab” by the Environmental Protection Agency threatens to crash America’s amateur car-racing industry without putting so much as a dent in climate change, warns the chairman of the House Space, Science and Technology Committee.
The EPA’s move to regulate emissions on non-road racing vehicles contradicted agency administrator Gina McCarthy’s earlier testimony that the EPA did not have authority over non-road race cars and motorcycles.
EPA officials said they are “clarifying” emissions law, yet the Clean Air Act has long exempted non-road vehicles used in competition. The agency has not made a similar move against NASCAR or other professional race circuits.
“The EPA cannot assume powers that Congress hasn’t given,” Rep. Lamar Smith, chairman of the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, said at an Oversight Subcommittee hearing Tuesday. The Texas Republican accused the agency of “unlawful regulation (conducted) without proper notice.”
Rep. Patrick McHenry, R-North Carolina, introduced a bipartisan bill, HR 4715, to block the EPA’s action. Texas Democrat Henry Cuellar is among the co-sponsors.
“The federal government has no place testing emissions at private tracks,” McHenry told the subcommittee.

Sadly my area has been negativly impacted thanks to the EPA.
The area had a motocross track that held national events every year that brought in
top riders and their fans.
They shut down the track because they claimed that gasoline was leeching into the ground and was finding its way into a small creek.
