As a cornerworker at the event, it appeared to be quite a success. =20

VARA also seems to be cracking down quite hard on bad driving. Lots of
people were sent down for a day, or even sent home for "stupid" =
mistakes.
Overall, fairly good driving, with minimal incidents (except the poor FF
driver who met with a tire wall). =20

Any opinions on this new "points" system that SVRA used at Road America? =
You get points for various driving infractions... but can "work them =
off" by helping at events. Personally, I think this sucks. If a guys =
driving poorly, or is an endangerment to himself or other drivers, how =
is this penance going to cure the problem? Does this policy agree with =
VMC philosophy? Does this agree with you?=20
Judging by the quality level of some of the drivers last weekend... I'd =
say that some organizations must be issuing licenses pretty freely.
