All those tracks have walls, guardrails, and fences. Just not all the way around. I believe the fence at Gas City didnt help John Wolfe's arm in 2003.

Perhaps jim goerge can start a gofundme collection effort to make a donation to Twin Cities. Meanwhile, I hope the rest of us can enjoy racing as good as last year. New dirt hopefully will reduce the racer cost of cut tires.

Am I the only one that remembers that Brady also left the park at Tri-state this past year, but instead of through a fence, he went completely over it? I think I'm starting to see a trend here, if Brady wants to leave a race track, he'll find a way, whether over a fence or through it. I'm beginning to think he's so fast that the track just can't contain him any more

I guess my point is, what's the difference in flipping through the turn 3 chain lick fence at north Vernon, and flipping over the banking in turn 3 at Bloomington or gas city? And JT, the John Wolfe getting hurt had nothing to do with a fence, it had to do with him getting hit by another car at a high rate of speed..

I wasn't going to comment at all and I agree racers know the dangers and will race or not on their decision.
But its wrong for a fan to say so as they see a fence that has no chance of even slowing down a car from landing in a grandstand. I've laid out in the past that building it in sections is still better than nothing and ways to do it without totally breaking the bank yet a third clay installment since the Brady Short ballpark incident is more important? I was walking the gangplank at LBurg when Brad Stevens hit LBurgs front straight fence right in front of me and thank the lord everyday that was a containment fence and not a garden fence.. No Twin Cities has no Casino money for that nobody denies that But you could buy old worn out Railroad track at scrap prices, Cut notches and hang rolls of 15ft link fence and run cables through it like Terre Haute
