This is for those who:

1. Do not have time to go to Ground School
2. Think the Rules of racing should be ignored
3. Think the are to many rules
4. Think a "steet car" is good enough
5. Wonder why they need to have a few sessions with an instructor
6. Why extra safety equipment is required

The drivers in this video are VERY experienced - what if it had been you???

well, yeah: shit happens on the track. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) wheel to wheel competition exponentially increases the risk (one concussion and counting!).

I don't know that a ggr-style ground school would really prevent an incident like this (was that the original point? still wondering...), but it probably serves to weed out the non-serious.
