In case your wondering, the Petition is still going strong. It has let up since the racing has started back, but It is still around 1890. The number is important, in fact, I am going to send a follow up reply when it reaches 2000 just to keep it on the front burner. What if feel is more important than the numbers are the comments. I made it a point to reach each and every comment. I feel very appreciative of those who left comments, and I will try and consolidate these when I make a follow up with the AMA. I didn't make a category for all the comments (Most of them were BRAAAAP :D) so I divided them into the most common ones:
Number of Comments - 629 out of 1890 signatures
Two Strokes and Rule Change Good for the Sport - 114 or 18%
Cheaper to Maintain and more Economical - 163 or 26%
Equal Displacements - 68 or 11%
Less Sound Problems - 14 or 2%
Displacement of 200 and 400 for 2-strokes - 7 or 1%
Displacement of 175 and 350 for 2-strokes - 9 or 1%
Rule Change would benefit privateers - 36 or 6%
Would provide an Option for racers - 20 or 3%
That totals out to 431 replies out of 629, so 198 replies did not fall into these categories. I wish I could get all these replies in front of the AMA. I was very encouraged and determined after reading them.
I will keep you posted on the progress. Thanks for all you've done. Everyone has really gone the extra mile for this.

great work. Man you are so determined to get this thing passed. You are making us two stroke fans proud.

This is the kind of grass-roots campaign that's needed if we hope to ever get the 2 stroke back in contention. Terrific job. Thank you!

Can you let us know which companies we can send individual letters to? I would like to write up a few letters myself. Let us know if there is anything we can do.

Finally got around to signing it and passing it on to another forum I belong to.

Interesting stats.
-
signed it, sorry for the delay
-
Well, I consider this forum kind of a home forum. No other forum has been as supportive and considerate as you guys. The thanks is all mine!
-
No, that's just not true. You absolutely deserve more thanks than any of us lazy bastards. For you to accept anything less than absolute gratitude and admiration from us all would be an insult to your effort, and I'll not have any of that on my favorite forum.

Teen Fo!

I'm working on a list of the companies I've sent it to. I'll post it here in a little while. I think that if we can find the local state MX forums, this would spread like crazy. I already have one for Texas, and LA, so I'll start working on more.
