Icon7 Calling out all Racers to keep Fontana open!!!

found this on another site everyone that has ever been to fontana
drag strip needs to come to this to show ur support!!!!


!! COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS MEETING !!


When - Tuesday April 10th
10:00 am

Where - County Government Building
385 N. Arrowhead Ave. San Bernardino 92415





As you know we lost the last drag strip in the Southern California area recently when a judge ruled that Auto Club Speedway must cease operations of the drag strip due to noise complaints. The speedway has expressed their desire to see drag racing continue at their facility and are currently determining their best options for moving forward on this matter.Auto Club Speedway - Fontana In an effort to help facilitate the return of drag racing to ACS we need to show our support of the drag strip and let the community as well as the local political powers know of the benefits of the drag strip. This is why we are organizing a show of support to take to the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors. We need to let our voices be heard in this matter. We are asking as many people as possible to join us at the following meeting.

County Board of Supervisors Meeting
Tuesday April 10th
10:00 am
County Government Building
385 N. Arrowhead Ave. San Bernardino 92415

We have assembled several speakers who will address the Board of Supervisors at this meeting. We will present the 4 benefits of Auto Club Dragstrip to them

#1: Economic, ACS generates millions of dollars into the local economy each year through the hundreds of participants who attend the races, buys parts and supplies from local vendors, stay at the hotels & eat in the restaurants as well as the employees at the track.

#2: Public Safety, Auto Club Drag Strip affords the community a safe place to race their cars in a controlled environment rather than engaging in dangerous & illegal street racing. Unfortunately we have had 2 deaths in the area from such street racing in recent weeks.


#3: Youth Programs, The junior dragster program is a huge opportunity for children and teenagers. These programs help kids learn so many positive life lessons as well as maintaining good grades so that they may continue to race.


#4: Sportsman Racer, Highlighting the hundreds of sportsman racers in Southern California who do not have a place to enjoy their hobby like soccer or softball or golf enthusiast have. Also, the thousands of dollars each of these racers contribute to the local community through this hobby.

We are asking everyone to meet outside the county government building in San Bernardino at 9:30 am on Tuesday April 10th. We hope to get the media to cover this event so that we can get our voice of support out there for the drag strip. We're not going there to discuss the validity of the neighbors lawsuit or to speak badly about anyone but to show positive support for Auto Club Speedway. We are creating a facebook page to keep everyone updated with correct information and we will get that information out ASAP. We look forward to your support.

I can't make it due to work.

But someone mention that all the home owners were aware of the noise level from the speedway, train, and factories with a NHD report before closing escrow. The drag strip did not increase the noise level. They knew where they were buying at and all the nuisances around their houses.

Hey take that racing to the track...oh yeah wait we closed all those tracks down because people built houses around a race track. Here is your ticket and we are going to crush your car. Makes no sense but it happens everywhere, they tried to do this to burton smith at lowes motor speedway a couple years ago when he built zmax. He told them sure no problem i'll move the track to another county. Then they gave him 48 million dollars to build zmax lol.

I live close by the speedway and the drag strip noise never bothered me
The NASCAR noise was 100x louder then the drag races noise

So why close down the drag strip?
