URGENT!!! - We need your help!
Many of you have read in the Advertiser that in an unusual move by Weighs and Means Committee Chairperson Senator Brian Taniguchi, Senator Coleen Hanabusa has been placed in charge of deciding if the tax bills for the new facility will be heard in the committee. Senator Hanabusa has been publicly outspoken against the bills that would allow us to have a new track on which to race. We can not sit by and let her destroy all that we have worked for.
I would like to request that everyone who reads this send an e-mail immediatly to both Senators Hanabusa and Taniguchi urging them to hear the bills in committee. We need to show these people that we are the majority of racers and that this is what we want.
Something quick and easy is all we need:
Subject: Please Hear the Motorsports Bill
Dear Senators,
I am a motor sports enthusiast and am writing to strongly urge you to let HB 994 be heard in WAM. This bill will help secure a permanent long-term home for motor sports on Oahu and allow for further expansion of a growing industry.
Sincerely,
Your name
Please send the email to:

But we again, need everyone to email Rep. Takamine and encourage him to hear SB1734. SORT is going to have a massive campaign as well against hearing the bills. We must act to counteract this misplaced attack on our cause to bring a WCF to Oahu for all of our racers. Do not let one small minority of personal vendettas decide the future for you. We're almost there...let's keep going!
The same template is all that you need:

We can do this...everyone has done a great job so far, and you've helped to keep these bills alive. Just a little more...and we've GOT IT! Let's do this!

i got a reply email from Senator Colleen Hanabusa:
"Thank you for your email. I have received others that are identical.
As Mr. Oakland has said, he can build the race track without the tax credit. HB 994 is a tax credit and has nothing to do with whether or not the racing facility can be built.
Senator Colleen Hanabusa"
$hit... she's totally against it
