    Down here they shut down the emissions testing about 20 years ago maybe longer. All the employees had a price... All of them... You wanna pass, you had to $$$... No questions asked... Pretty good racket...

    Good luck pulling the same stunt in 2 years again. I believe each VIN is only allowed 1 waiver, period.

    I'll let you know the results next week.

    They do a visual inspection, so do a write up on things that aren't obvious as exhaust parts. MAF, O2's, C.O.P.S., stuff like that.
