Although this was a tragic event, I'm curious to see what the 914 members feel about the entire safety versus freedom discussion. I love to go to the drag strip to hear... no... feel the cars race. But when they invite families and children to these events, how far should they go to ensure the safety of the spectators?
I have mixed feelings about this myself. It used to be that you could go to a race, drag, road or oval, and really feel a part of the event. It seems to me that the safety issue has sanitized these races to a large extent. But in the long run, which is better??? Eric |
