So far 1007 people have signed.  How many do we actually need for this new rule to pass.

I would like to get at least 2000. I'm working on an update for my conversation with AMA today, which was even more positive and enthusiastic than my initial emails.

Awesome. I have been telling everyone I know. My wife and our 16 year old nephew that lives with us signed it also.

Has anyone tried to send an email or contact the powers at be at KTM, TM or other manufacturers making similar cc bikes,
to let them know that this petition is being done in an attempt to revise/change the current rule.  
What I'm thinking is, both manufacturers listed in John's article on the main page, would benefit from the possibility of
more of their bikes being able/allowed to be raced on the pro level, when this rule is revised/passed.  
Perhaps their knowledge of this would help these manufacturers to positively influence this rule revision/change.

Man, I've contacted them through their website contact form, but I haven't heard anything back from TM or KTM. I may have to call them. I'll bet if they had several of us doing it then they would respond. I'll try tomorrow. If we flood them with it then we may see some headway.

Thanks Coop.
Burn,  man your on top of things, and I am wishing you the energy to keep it up !
I started to email KTM while at work today, similar to the fashion Burn did, but then my boss came walking by  :o
and I had to destroy the evidence.  :-X
I have looked at KTM's recently in interest of purchasing and loved their bikes, I will be glad to make a very good effort to contact them about all
of this. keep on keeping the faith 2t brothers  :D

When I suggested a petition in burn's first post about getting 144 approved I didn't realize two things:

1) That he is so driven and motivated
2) That the petition would take off like it has.

We are lucky to have a guy like burn around.
