find where the portsmouth police department is.
visit the facility and speak to the receptionist and ask to speak to the facilities chief or supervising officer.
tell him about the situation and how you want to correct it or not allow it to happen again, ask for some sort of assistance from the police and ask for what they have to offer. tell him/her you are angered about it just as the family of the victims of this accident. tell them you dont support street racing

also be aware that having an officer assigned to babysit a parking lot isnt going to be such an easy task. they will see it as a waste of tax money. but at the same time if this parking lot thing is allowed then there will be a cop assigned to randomly check things out. just dont get your hope up without a fight. this will not be an easy task.

dont lie to the cops to get them on your side. there are alerady enuff reasons for them to not let you do this, if they find out that you lie to them about anything even the smallest thing you will lose all trust. dont bring up street racing at all. let them you know that you do not condone immature behavior, or reckless driving. dotn tell them that you dont condone what you are there for in the first place.

and i'm not there for street racing. i'm there to hang out with whoever i want to hang out with. when i go, most of the time the car is barely able to get me to work, let alone be fast. its always clean though when i do go out. thats my point now is to chill and bling foos.

now i don't think yall have thought about this or not but how about a charity event after we ask the owner for those that got hurt this past weekend it would involve people sitting at all entrances and taking donations we could form our own security with written permission from the owner if we have anyone acting up we ask them to leave if they don't listen we call the cops we make people to sign a waiver when they enter that they will act responceable (no drinking acting stupid kinda shit) just an idea pm me if you wanna help set this up

As for the policing people from coming through that's easier said than done. How are you going to physically keep people from coming into the parking lot with out jeopardizing your safety.
Probably one of the best Ideas I've seen if this. I had a DSM meet up in Hagerstown MD. and they used the mall parking lots and charged like $2 per car the area was roped off to where there was no room for driving just park your car and walk around. it was from 9-12 and the money was donated to charity. if someone could talk to the Ames dealer or any large parking lot owner and see if he might consider something like that that's the only way you can cover yourselves. and anyone caught outside the ropes is subject to loitering.
All the ideas are good ones but from a cops stand point I can't see to many ways for you to control the area without breaking some laws yourselves.

and for calling the cops on a couple people that don't wanna comply then the cops are gonna just eject everyone. How are you gonna call the cops for doing something that in a way your doing also. unless your an owner. Maybe calling the cops to just patrol the area more can help but then you know they may start busting people more for the little things illegal on their cars.
I still have to stick with teh idea of having a 1/4 mile track or circut track in the area. Somewhere people can go to and be able to go fast. So they can keep it off the streets and parking lots.

I don't know if anyone is going to try to contact the people in charge of Ames or not, but does anyone have any suggestions on place that we could hold an event?
Basically looking for a centrally located large well-lit parking lot. Preferably one that isn't owned by a corporation but a person.
Moved to general until someone has something a little more solid. i.e. this isn't an "event" ... yet.
