Of course any person _could_ have said he doesn't want to drive this layout due
to safety. But IMO autocross is not like going on the track or wheel-wheel racing; you don't need any special license, you don't need to go to a weekend school first, you don't need to take an instructor, you don't need any special safety equipment in your car (other than helmet and sometimes roll-bar in a cab). So, this must take into account beginners, over-aggressive types, and also that there are course workers standing out there (also could be beginners). It is up to the club to make the thing _safe_ excepting totally ridiculous unpredictable circumstances. If you start a club that only allows 'pros', then feel free to do whatever. |

What kind of morons have they let loose to design courses. This is a ludicrous speed for safety. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Thanks for posting. Serious ball contraction moment there. "Narrowly escapes high speed rollover into trees." I know the feeling. Educational. |
