I’m all for a green future, and efforts towards protecting the environment but there are a lot of more important issues to be addressed than banning leaded fuel in race cars. Fuck. I’m all for a gree future and protecting the environment too and I agree there are more important issues that need to be addressed in order to protect our environment for a greener future, but by the way things are going and by the looks of things the Canadian government sooner or later is going to say the holes in the ozone layer are caused by street racing LOL. ---

If you read the article, you’d see they’re granting a permanent exemption to aircraft, and only banning it from drag racing. ---

Another thing worth mentioning: > **[Car News, Reviews, & Pricing for Environmentally-Friendly Vehicles - Autoblog...](https://www.autoblog.com/green/)** > > Get up-to-the-minute environmentally-friendly (or egregiously unfriendly) car news, reviews, high-quality photos and commentary about living green. Basically Corvette Racing will be using E85, made from woodchips or something along those lines. Ethanol has a lot of the same properties as leaded gas, with the ability to run super high compression.
