We have always wanted a skid pad in hawkes bay. We got one. Then it gets taken away from us because of a few whinges. This is the only place we can legally do it, and for a lot of people this is there passion which they are unable to pursue legally now.Sean Morrison (Napier, 2021-01-31)

It's a better place to pop tyres then on the roads and has a bit more of a safe aspect to it too don't have to watch out for cars just hit limit and goRoss Curran (Napier, 2021-01-31)

This will be a great thing for our youth and us oldies to come and enjoy some great burn out action, enthusiasts can meet and share friendship and knowledge. It’s certainly a great ideaJ wilson (Hastings, 2021-01-31)

People are doing burnouts on the streets and causing damages to roads,putting others and them self in danger.it ain’t going to stop because it’s what people love,if we had a controlled environment where spectators and drivers are safe then it wouldn’t be much of a concern and the public would be happy.Blaze Ripohau (Hastings, 2021-01-31)

This is why the streets get terrorised. Bring back the skid pad so we can legally let off steam, have some fun and have a good ol fashioned car meet with a bit of banter. ChurJames Dixon (Napier, 2021-01-31)

We lost Thunderpark raceway which was an awesome facility. It was the best t in the Southern Hemisphere. Now the closest thing is Taupo or Masterton. These guys/girls need somewhere safe to enjoy their cars, have fun without doing it on public streets and endangering others and property.Debbie Steed (Napier, 2021-01-31)

We need it!!!!Matthew Cherry (Hastings, 2021-02-01)

I'm signing this petition because I believe that the meeanee speedway would be a good place for car / bike burnout enthusiasts to go and celebrate their cars / bikes legally which was it's intended use I also believe in this petition because it will hopefully prevent people doing skids at 3 in the morning outside someone's house or worse in a Street where there's kids playing and they get hurtChris bixley (hastings, 2021-02-01)

I believe that this would be great for the region and would help curb the amount of burnouts on the roads.Chris Hardie (Hastings, 2021-02-01)

Having a local skid pad would of saved me about 50 demerits and alot in fines. Motorsport is a recognized sport world wide and the minority should have a way of recreational use especially when theres obviously so many enthusiasts out there. It makes senseJack Wills (Napier, 2021-02-01)

There needs to be a safe and public venue for our petrol heads to let off steam legallyPaul Dixon (Napier, 2021-02-01)

Car enthusiasts need a place to go and have fun but it also need to be controlled and having a place like a skid pad that is controlled and not on the roads will be less stress and worry to the community and it a great way to keep it off the streets if something isn't done the streets will just get worse that's what the non car enthusiasts need to get. Without a controlled and save place to do skids and drags the roads are all we got and with nothing being done about it to help the car community out it will only get worseEthan Hocquard (Napier, 2021-02-01)

As a young citizen of the hawkes bay, every pursuit is catered for apart from car enthusiasts. If there is a safe place for people to let off some steam, the streets will be cleaner and safer.Nikki Mortensen (Haumoana, 2021-02-01)

I missed out on the events held there and I’m very keen to have a go out there. I’m a huge advocate for getting people into organised events to do burnouts rather then on the street and having another venue able to be used is always better.Tony Whiley (Wellington, 2021-02-01)

This is being productive.... It's a hobby to many and they need somewhere to hang out without harm to others and marking our streets.Hayley Taylor (Napier, 2021-02-01)

I'm tired of my house smelling of burning rubber,having my animals scared of the noise and being woken up when people decide to do burnouts outside of my house and near by. If a pad is what it takes for it to stop then I'm all for it.Belinda Spargo (Napier, 2021-02-01)

I believe it is needed in the community to help clean up the streetsJordan Grant (Napier, 2021-02-01)

I’m signing because it would be far safer to have the skid pad than to have them doing skids on the street. It’s a good place to socialise and hang out without risk on endangering general public traffic.Courtney Schwass (Napier, 2021-02-01)

Im signing this because im sick of not having anywhere to do burn outs because posh dicks dont like youge people having funAndrew Drury (Napier, 2021-02-01)
#129
it’ll be good to have somewhere local to go have some fun instead of having to pay to go to out of town events where you have to fork out that extra money for hotels to stay at and car trailers when we can just drive around the corner so much easier also takes a lot of hoons off the street and saves all the fines and everyone losing there license just because they wanna do something that they love but yet there’s nowhere for us car enthusiasts to go to. I would say it’s a brilliant idea to open up this skid pad that was made and then taken from us and put some use to it !!Jamie-Ray Walker (Hastings, 2021-02-01)

It has been proven in countries around the world if you give kids a purpose and something constructive you will keep them off the streets and inspire them to follow their dreams.You may even save their lives by doing something under controlled conditions.
Teach them skills of mechanics, auto electrics etc etc and inspire the next generation, not turn them in to criminals.
What a great opportunity to do some great work especially with the history of motorsports within this beautiful country.

I have mates who’re super into skids but they always get themselves into trouble by skidding on the street areas so it would be great to have a place for them to showcase their talents. Overall it isn't a bad idea and i think it would help alot with cutting down the trouble that people get in with police. Give us a skid pad so it keeps our car guys out of trouble. They really mean no harm, just need a place to let some steam out.Shakaea Perkins Wiari (Napier, 2021-02-01)

If they had a place specifically for that there would be less of it on the streets, less likely to brake the rules, and less of it around kids on the streets or around housing so forth. In a controlled environment it can be safe and open to all that are interestedJoulley Rarere (Napier, 2021-02-02)
