Chill dude - I didn't advocate taking any legal action against any track.

I take full responsibility for risks on track, and rightly all track owners require signed waivers of liability so that everyone has to do the same.

I've had my share of racing incidents: crashing in the rain at Turn 5 on drivers left at Road Atlanta while leading a a race, taken out by a competitor entering turn 2 at Roebling that cost me the SARRC Regional Championship one year, and witnessed up close several "competitors" at HPDE events hit various immovable objects at Barber, Road Atlanta, Brainard, etc. where there should have been more run off room.

I don't want to close any tracks, but I would like to see a lot of improvements. Unfortunately that will only come with big money.

yeah. biggest problem with most tracks is all those corners. take them out and everything would be a lot safer.

I understand what Lapdoug is saying. I had a simple off at Pocono, but since they didn't bother to grade the runoff, it tore the nose and radiator off my Formula Ford. Like any other business, tracks tend to improve their bottom line by deferring maintenance.
