I agree Mike.....BUT!!!!!
If the hot rod community can do the homework to get emission exemptions...then why can't the combined cobra clubs in Australia???.
This subject has been boiling away for a long time and it's a credit to the hot rod community that they found a way around the bureaucracy.
This is exactly what the cobra community HAS to do for the good of the members and growth in the industry. The kit manufacturers have to get behind this and join forces as an industry, if they are going to survive.
Elsewise, eventually, what will happpen is that our little cars will have to have things like multi airbags, ABS, and all manner of modern crap before we will be able to register them.
End result.....too expensive and too technical for the kit buyer....end of industry .
Go on...just ask me if I got out of bed on the wrong side this morning.
