Isn't this something? Wow, I never would have guessed that this would take off like it has. Even the AMA rep seems somewhat agreeable to considering this. Here's his reply:

"Hi Mark,
 I've passed this on to the mx series manager. It sounds like your group must have some KTM interest as they are the only ones building two strokes in that size range. Otherwise we will have to allow boring and stroking to come up with those numbers. We will take it under advisement and discuss the merits. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

We are right in the meat of our racing activity for the 2010 season so we won't be able to put it on the front burner. I hope you understand. I will stay in touch though. Thanks again."

Please pass the petition along to others - forums, blogs, facebook, twitter, etc. I'm sure if the AMA sees the number of people who have agreed to this, that they will actually be motivated to make the change!

Mark, Awesome job! Thank you!!

I'm currently working on an article to show that there are 144 and 300 race machines available for this class. Since I will be away, either PM Coop or post your suggestions for machines that should be included in an article.

The point of the article is to show that machines are available, even if you have to do some machine work!

Just a thought... do you think if we could get the AMA to approve this rule, that MI could be convinced to build a Maico 300???

Would anyone besides me like to see that??

They bent that rule for Suzuki this year, but I doubt they would for Husky, Maico, or TM.  Another petition????

isn't there the 400 production bike rule?

This is very interesting... from the info I have heard, this rule has been changed and lowered considerably. I have not been able to find out what the exact number is, but I believe if any of the smaller manufacturers are truly interested in racing, I think something might be able to be done....

First things first though... let's help burn1986 get this spread to all corners of the world to get thousands of signatures!
