This was something mentioned on PH a while ago, and I happned to stumble on it again recently. Rather disappointingly, only 2815 (at time of writing) people have found the time to sign the e-petition, which is a rather embarrassing and disappointing result. Yes, it's highly unlikely that anything like this would ever be built in the UK, but it would be nice to see at least some support from the true petrolheads of Britain.
