Time to get out your angry face!

A. A city of town shall not sponsor or allow to be held within the city or town a motor vehicle competition outside of a closed-course motorsport facility at which the sound level exceeds 90 decibels at any time.
B. For the purpose of this section, "Closed-course motorsport facility" and "motor vehicle" have the same meanings prescribed in Section 12-556.

1. "Closed-course motor sports facility" means a closed-course speedway or racetrack that is designed and intended for motor vehicle competition, exhibitions of speed or other forms of recreation involving the use of motor vehicles.
2. "Motor vehicle" means an automobile, motorcycle or other vehicle that is propelled by power, other than muscular power, that is used to transport persons and that operates within the confines of a closed-course motor sport track.

Threatens two national level rally events and at least one regional only event.

To make it really easy I have created one simple mailing list, that upon having a message sent to it, it will forward to the 89 members of Arizona's state legislature who's email addresses are listed at http://www.azleg.state.az.us/MemberRoster.asp
For those who may also want to call, then number is at the top of the link. Your action on this can be important. I personally have spoken to forest service managers on both the east and the west coast through the sending on emails on behalf of threatened rallies.

So send emails to
arizona@nocoastmotorsports.net

Which will automatically go out to 89 members!

Oh, already defeated.
"Yonover and Jensen also had to fight an amendment added recently to a marriage license bill in the Arizona legislature that would have banned any motorsports event outside of a closed course with noise reaching 90 decibels. The legislation was defeated."

Fuck it, send the bastards emails anyway.

Got to love "log rolling" the parctice of adding non realated bits to other bills so they both become law sometimes with out debate.
