From the SEMA Washington, D.C., office

 

Ahead of a critical August 17 business meeting, the California Energy Commission (CEC) has placed on the agenda its proposed replacement tire efficiency regulations, bringing the controversial regulation one step closer to final adoption. 

 

• TAKE ACTION: SEMA is urging automotive aftermarket businesses, tire manufacturers, retailers and enthusiasts to participate remotely and tell commissioners how the proposal could affect tire affordability, consumer choice and access to specialty tires. 

 

The CEC in July revised its initial proposal, following months of opposition from SEMA and a broad coalition of industry stakeholders. Those changes delayed implementation and created or expanded exemptions for several specialty-tire categories, including competition tires, qualifying winter tires and certain large off-road tires.  

 

However, significant concerns remain. Among them, SEMA remains troubled by the regulation's potential for increasing tire costs, while reducing the range of affordable replacement tires available to California consumers. Additionally, the proposed competition-tire exemption remains too narrow and could leave legitimate motorsports tires subject to standards designed for ordinary passenger tires. 

 

Make Your Voice Heard 

 

The Monday, August 17, CEC business meeting will be held from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. PDT.  

• Members of the public may participate remotely through Zoom (Meeting ID: 886 5692 5780; Passcode: energy) 

 

SEMA encourages industry members to join the meeting and respectfully urge commissioners to address the regulation's remaining impacts on consumers, small businesses and specialty tire availability before moving forward.

Parts Authority––the Lake Success, New York-based distributor of automotive replacement parts, tools and equipment––has acquired NPW Companies (National Auto Parts Warehouse), the family-owned distributor of traditional, engine and performance parts headquartered in Miami.

The acquisition adds NPW's 46 locations to the Parts Authority network, bringing the combined company to nearly 325 locations and expanding Parts Authority's geographic footprint into five new states.

Founded by Larry Pacey in 1969, NPW built its business on customer relationships, extensive inventory and service, and today brings a catalog of more than one million part numbers from more than 700 brands.

NPW's leadership and team members will join Parts Authority as part of the transaction. Current NPW President and CEO Chris Pacey will continue as president of NPW/EPW while taking on a senior role within Parts Authority. The companies said the combined teams will work to ensure a seamless transition and uninterrupted daily service.

"This is an exciting milestone for NPW, our team and our customers," Pacey said. "I am even more excited that our family will remain part of this journey, contributing to the continued growth and success of both companies as they move forward together."

Clark Hale, CEO of Parts Authority, said NPW's locations complement the company's existing footprint, allowing it to position more inventory closer to customers.

"The Paceys built a remarkable family business, and we intend to honor that legacy," Hale said. "Just as important, the NPW team is at the heart of this acquisition, and we are thrilled to welcome them to the Parts Authority family."

Demco Launches Campaign to Support Farm Rescue

Demco's agricultural sector will be featured on Ryan Ellis' No. 02 car at the Hy-Vee Perks 250 in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Iowa Speedway.

 

Demco's agricultural sector is launching the "Built to Move, Driven to Rescue" campaign in conjunction with Farm Rescue, a nonprofit organization that provides hands-on, operational support to farm families in crisis.

 

As part of the campaign, Demco fully sponsored Ryan Ellis' No. 02 car at the Hy-Vee Perks 250 in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series at Iowa Speedway. The initiative is designed to put a national spotlight on Farm Rescue, raise awareness among farm families that it is okay to ask for help during a crisis, increase awareness of the organization's services and turn national attention into critical funding for the farmers and ranchers who may be facing some of the hardest moments of their lives, according to the company.

 

The campaign reflects a shared commitment to supporting farmers and farm families when crisis threatens the work they depend on every day. Through a national racing platform, "Built to Move, Driven to Rescue" brings together farmers, NASCAR fans, agricultural creators, Farm Rescue volunteers, campaign partners and families who have been helped by Farm Rescue to expand awareness, build support and help keep farm families moving forward.

 

"Built to Move, Driven to Rescue" has connected with farm and racing audiences through a series of key events, beginning July 30, at AgPhD Field Day in Baltic, South Dakota, where Demco and Farm Rescue introduced the campaign car, shared donation incentives and gave attendees the opportunity to sign the car before it went to Iowa Speedway for the Hy-Vee Perks 250 on August 8.

 

At the race, a dedicated fan zone served as the campaign's headquarters, giving attendees a place to connect with Farm Rescue, hear stories of impact and participate in the fundraiser. The campaign will continue September 1–3, at the Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa, where the replica NASCAR will be on display to build additional awareness and support for Farm Rescue.

There's still time to register for the SEMA Emerging Trends & Technology Network (ETTN) virtual education session, "The ABCs of EV Safety," taking place on Tuesday, August 25, at 12:00 p.m. PDT/3:00 p.m. EDT.

 

Electric vehicles (EVs) represent an increasing share of vehicles on the road, so aftermarket and custom builders must understand safety at the system level. The session will demystify the "ABCs of EV Safety"––critical systems and principles that keep electric vehicles safe to drive, service and build. Attendees will gain a practical, standards-aligned understanding of high-voltage safety fundamentals with real-world guidance for conversations and decisions in aftermarket EV integration and custom builds.

 

Key learning objectives will focus on safety architecture, risk awareness and how professionals can apply solid engineering and safety practices without getting lost in technical proprietary details.

 

Key Learning Objectives:

1. Explain core EV safety systems––including high-voltage interlock loops, isolation monitoring and discharge strategies.
2. Recognize safe component practices––how covered high-voltage connections and properly rated parts prevent failure.
3. Understand thermal and controller roles––how temperature management and vehicle control logic maintain safety.
4. Translate standards into shop practice––connect safety principles to real aftermarket builds without requiring OEM-level tools or bench references.

 

Leading the session are speakers Chuck Kinkade, engineering manager at Redline Detection; Mavrick Knoles, president and co-founder at Legacy EV LLC; and Tom Santilli, curriculum specialist at Legacy EV––all of whom bring extensive knowledge and experience in EV workforce development and automotive diagnostic technology and leadership.

 

Aftermarket professionals working with EVs, particularly shop owners and lead technicians, EV conversion specialists, high-performance builders and fabricators, and technical trainers and educators are encouraged to attend. Register here.

The 2026 SEMA Leaders & Legends Gala in Newport Beach, California, marked a 50th anniversary milestone of the cherished event.

 

Last week, industry leaders, innovators and enthusiasts gathered at the Renaissance Newport Beach to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the SEMA Leaders & Legends Gala, a tradition originating in 1976. The event comes 63 years after SEMA was founded in 1963.

 

The evening, hosted by industry voice Kevin Oeste, honored the SEMA Hall of Fame Class of 2026, recognized industry leadership, reflected on another year of advocacy victories and looked ahead to the future of the automotive aftermarket as part of the theme, "The Next 63 Years, Engineering the SEMA of Tomorrow."

 

SEMA CEO Mike Spagnola opened the evening by recognizing the volunteers, members and leaders whose dedication has fueled the association for more than six decades while paying tribute to SEMA co-founder and first president Ed Iskenderian, who passed away earlier this year at the age of 104.

 

The SEMA Leaders & Legends Gala begins with a cocktail hour to network and socialize.

 

"Sixty-three years ago, Ed and a small group of volunteers didn't just start a trade association. They helped build a global industry," Spagnola said. "That founding generation created an incredible legacy. Now it is up to all of us to build the next 63 years."

 

Spagnola also highlighted several milestones that continue to strengthen the specialty-equipment industry, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's formal recognition of the SEMA Certified-Emissions Program as a reliable pathway for demonstrating federal emissions compliance, providing manufacturers with a clearer path to bring compliant performance products to market.

 

Among SEMA's recent initiatives is a new focus on powersports and motorcycles, including the introduction of a new Powersports/Side-by-Side (SxS)/Lifestyle section set for debut at the 2026 SEMA Show, November 3-6, in Las Vegas. In addition, the Show-favorite Battle of the Builders presented by Mothers Polish introduces a new side to the competition this year: the Battle of the Builders: Bike Builder Shootout as a dedicated motorcycle category.

 

During the Gala, Spagnola also let attendees in on a secret: a dedicated powersports and motorcycle organization will join SEMA's councils and networks sometime in the near future.

 

The evening's centerpiece, however, was the induction of four industry icons into the SEMA Hall of Fame. The class of 2026 recognized individuals whose decades of leadership, innovation and volunteer service have left a lasting mark on the automotive aftermarket.

 

SEMA Hall of Fame inductee Doug Dwyer's six-decade career was celebrated during the 2026 SEMA Leaders & Legends Gala.

 

Doug Dwyer was honored for a career spanning six decades across wheels and tires, motorsports marketing and brand development, as well as his longstanding commitment to SEMA volunteer leadership and industry service.

 

Jay Leno, SEMA Hall of Fame inductee, was honored for spreading a passion for vehicles and also his advocacy work with "Leno's Law" in California. 

 

Jay Leno was recognized for using his global platform to champion automotive culture, enthusiast rights and the specialty-equipment industry. Beyond sharing his passion for vehicles on "Jay Leno's Garage," Leno has worked with SEMA and the SEMA Action Network to advocate for California Senate Bill 712, known as "Leno's Law," a bill designed to modernize the state's smog-check process for collector vehicles.

 

SEMA Hall of Fame inductee Ellen McKoy was celebrated for her 50-year-career and many contributions to the SEMA community. 

 

Ellen McKoy was celebrated for nearly 50 years of leadership as an entrepreneur, journalist, consultant, SEMA executive and volunteer. Her contributions include helping establish the SEMA Professional Restylers Organization (PRO) and founding the SEMA Businesswomen's Network, organizations that continue to strengthen the industry today.

 

Attendees at the 2026 SEMA Leaders & Legends Gala celebrated SEMA Hall of Fame inductee Dennis Overholser for his decades of contributions to the hot rod and racing communities. Unable to attend the event, Overholser was represented by his son Lance, who accepted the honor on his behalf.

 

Dennis Overholser was inducted in recognition of his career as founder of Painless Performance Products and his decades of service advancing the hot-rod and racing communities through SEMA leadership, legislative advocacy and volunteerism.

 

SEMA Chair Melanie White reflected on the association's momentum over the past year, highlighting accomplishments in government advocacy, workforce development and vehicle technology through her G.Y.T. initiative, which stands for Government, Youth and Technology.

 

Among the year's achievements, White celebrated the continued progress protecting motorsports and enthusiast rights, expanded student scholarships and workforce initiatives and growing investments in advanced vehicle technology through the SEMA Garage.

 

Newly elected SEMA Board member Jeff Hermann was honored during the 2026 SEMA Leaders & Legends Gala.

 

White also recognized current Board members and outgoing Board member Ted Wentz, who served SEMA for six years. White also welcomed newly elected Board member Jeff Hermann before congratulating the Hall of Fame Class of 2026.

 

"This group represents decades of leadership, innovation and passion that have shaped our industry," White said. "Your contributions continue to inspire all of us, and we are proud to honor you as part of SEMA's legacy."

 

The beloved tradition of the pinewood derby race, the Industry Cup Challenge benefiting SEMA Cares, combines friendly competition with giving back.

 

The annual Industry Cup Challenge pinewood derby once again raised awareness and support for SEMA Cares, the association's charitable arm, continuing a Gala tradition that combines friendly competition with giving back.

 

As the SEMA Leaders & Legends Gala celebrated its golden anniversary, the evening served as both a tribute to the pioneers who built the aftermarket and a reminder that the industry's future will continue to be driven by innovation, advocacy and the people committed to advancing it together.

 

SEMA will continue the celebrations during the 2026 SEMA Industry Honors event on Thursday, November 5, at the iconic Fontainebleau in Las Vegas, as part of the SEMA Show week. Learn more at semashow.com and semashow.com/industry-honors.
