Long Island is home to a large and passionate automotive community — yet it remains without a dedicated, legal, and professionally managed motorsports facility. This absence affects more than just enthusiasts. When no appropriate venue exists, activity spills into public roads, parking lots, and residential areas — places never designed for it. The result is increased risk for drivers, pedestrians, families, and local communities.

This petition exists to address that reality with a responsible, forward-looking solution.

Long Island International Raceway is an advocacy-driven initiative grounded in three core values:
Safety • Community • Passion

The vision being advocated for is a circuit-style motorsports raceway — a closed-course, purpose-built facility designed specifically for controlled, professional motorsports activity. The long-term goal is for such a facility to be designed in alignment with internationally recognized motorsports safety and design standards, ensuring world-class engineering, oversight, and operational discipline.

A professionally planned circuit-style raceway is not merely a recreational amenity — it is a public safety and infrastructure solution. Purpose-built facilities provide oversight, accountability, and controlled environments. They reduce unsafe street activity by offering a legal alternative, while ensuring that safety standards, insurance requirements, and professional operations are enforced.

A properly planned raceway would provide Long Island with:

• Safer roads and neighborhoods through the reduction of illegal and unsupervised driving activity
• A regulated environment designed to protect both participants and spectators
• A family-oriented venue that supports youth programs, driver education, and future careers in motorsports, engineering, and skilled trades
• Positive economic impact through sanctioned events, tourism, and partnerships with local businesses

This initiative is not a racetrack under construction. It is a long-term, community-backed advocacy effort intended to demonstrate responsible demand and to encourage thoughtful exploration by local leaders, planners, and stakeholders.

Any future progress would be pursued in coordination with New York State agencies, local towns, municipalities, and community stakeholders, ensuring that planning, zoning, environmental review, and public input are handled transparently and responsibly.

We are approaching this effort with professionalism, accountability, and respect for Long Island and its residents. Each signature strengthens the case that maintaining the status quo is no longer the safest or most effective option — and that a planned, regulated solution, developed in partnership with the public sector, serves the greater public interest.

This is a long-term vision that requires patience, collaboration, and broad community support.
Whether you are a resident concerned about safety, a parent thinking about the next generation, a business owner, or an automotive enthusiast, this effort affects you.

If you believe Long Island deserves a responsible, community-focused solution that prioritizes safety and long-term benefit, we invite you to sign and share this petition.

Together, we can advocate for a safer, smarter, and more constructive future for Long Island.
