So I was just randomly thinking about emissions and how the rotary crowd pretty much always rips them out. Rotaries are already pollution machines and then out of all the car groups almost all of us take emissions out. I bet even though we're a minority compared to piston engine cars we contribute a pretty large chunk in terms of car emissions in the US.

I heard something funny, don't know if it was true...:



even though SUV's are bad on gas and pollute more than regular cars... the total number of race cars in the nascar races pollute more in one year than all the SUV's on the road in one year.



kinda funny.. if this is true, why not eliminate nascar and keep SUV's ?
