Maybe. Do the online research. Here are two sites I quickly found:

North Carolina Traffic Laws - FindLaw
North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 20 Motor Vehicles - Legal Research

But take Frank Lee's advice and check out the Tempo Kammback thread first:

It's informative. He did the testing you are considering, IIRC.... seriously, don't miss it.

I'll be following you with interest... every now and then I get the Kammback daydream bug again... but I still have too many half completed mods needing cosmetic work before I try another.

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
