Mike Spagnola is the president of SEMA. Naturally we'll be talking about the EPA, the rise of EVs, and what the future of modded cars looks like.

 

He's also built some seriously fast toys of his own, raced in open wheel, the Mint 400, and tracks an Ariel Atom. He's one of us.

 

This conversation was fascinating. We talk about modified car trends; over-fenders; the overlanding explosion; what the EPA is trying to do to the car hobby; how SEMA's two Garages help small businesses build and test new parts (and get them approved by CARB); how SEMA is evolving; arrival of the EV swap; and why this year's SEMA is bigger than ever.
