Gwinnett County Autocross Petition in Atlanta - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

I'm posting this on behalf of the Atlanta Region Solo Chair. We have a person that is doing their best to cause us to lose one of our best sites. We need the help of anyone that has attended an event in Atlanta to sign this petition.
------------------------------------------------------------------
As most of you are aware, there has been some complaints to the The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners about the events held at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds. Though no actions have been taken at this point, it is my opinion that it is in the best interest of our sport that we begin collecting data to support our cause as soon as possible. With this in mind I have created two petitions, one for Gwinnett County residents and one for non-residents. The residents petition is designed to show support for our events in the county. The non-residents petition is to show how much money is brought into Gwinnett county by non-residents for these events. The non-resident petition needs to be signed by individuals who have actually participated in Gwinnett County Fairgrounds Events (including SCCA National Tours, ProSolos, Divisionals, Points Events, DoubleCross, Schools, TnTs, BMW Club Events, Porsche Club Events, etc). The Resident petition may be supported by any resident of Gwinnett County, Georgia.

Participants in Gwinnett County Events who do not live in Gwinnett County:

Please share this opportunity to be heard with fellow participants as well as members of the community.

Thank you,

We're trying to show how much money out of town people bring to the local businesses when they attend events. The county has already done a sound study to determine how much noise we make. Basically, not enough to worry about. But the guy seesm to think he can threaten us with a law suit to get us to stop. We're already running a 96 @ 50 feet sound limit and considering dropping that even more.
