Arnie,

You may not remember me, but I am the guy with the red '87 CRX Si that you checked (and passed!) about a week or so ago at your shop on Sepulveda Blvd. in West LA.

I was nervous that day but I knew I was in good hands when the very first question you asked me was if I ever visited Red Pepper Racing's web site. You took the time and care to make sure my catalytic converter was as hot as possible when you ran your tests and that made the difference in allowing my car to pass the sniffer test.

I just wanted to say thank you again and that I hope to run into you again at one of our next events.

Wow, that's out of control. Here in AZ, I spent $27 for an every-other-year emissions inspection (dyno/sniffer, and a fairly weak visual) plus $15/year to register my '87 DX.

Yet ANOTHER reason not to live in California tongue.gif laugh.gif

In my county (Randolph) we don't have ANY emissions testing for cars pre-OBD2 (pre- '96) biggrin.gif
We DO have an absolutely worthless "safety inspection" rolleyes.gif that's a whopping $9.10 and takes any moron w/ a pad and pen 45 seconds to write up and approve....
