Failed Emissions, what does it mean?

[mkii_84@yahoo.com (Andrew Wong)]

Before removing emissions in the neighorhood county,
my friend with the corvette was going to put a fake
cat on his just so he can keep his Corvette while he
moves to that county, but they stopped emissions and
he does not have to make a fake anymore and he hasn't
moved yet.  Hes done other crazy things like cheat on
the inspections
