Arrow Please Help CT get a Dragway! PLEASE!

I am reaching out to the Cobaltss.net community to help the people of CT and the surrounding states.

We need signatures from anyone who wants to help so we can have a 1/4 mile dragway in CT.
The more signatures the better. We have to drive over an hour to another state to use a 1/4 mile track right now.

Thank you so much for your help everyone. Here is the link. It takes 2 minutes.

Good luck CT. We have been trying to get one down here on LI for a while now. We have been making great progress but no such luck yet. I hope politicians in Connecticut are cooler than they are down here.

I hear you man. Not cool when you show up to the track heat soaked from hours of driving.

I can't get on that site from work because its an "Advocacy Group" site.

I'll definately do it when I get home though.


I'll be thinking about how nice it would be during the 2+ hour drive to Lebanon on Friday morning.

Just so you know....your local politicians will see that people NOT from CT and the close area are signing that and will ignore those signatures. They only care what people who can vote for them think, not anyone else.

Just some knowledge from someone with a little bit of petition experience.

But the only info that you have to give is your name and email, unless they check every name and find the state that person is registered to, they will never know the difference. and that would mean that they would have to actually work, we all know they wont do that

Yeah that is the major point. We can keep it on the track, not the streets. Exactly.
