There are lots-o-clubs running stuff, so I didn't want to assume it was
an SCCA event. Shouldn't matter...this course was clearly (based on the
information I have, I was not there) too fast and quite obviously too
dangerous. My point was that while some clubs can and will run wherever
they want or can, there still needs to be a safety conciousness. If
this sort of thing starts happening at our site, (even if something
happens at another event totally unrelated to AX) I fear that the owner
will pull it out from under us, and right now it's the only game in this
big town. Keep your heads up and your wheels on the paved part! ;)
