That's a **** shame... Prayers go out to the familes.

That is a shame. You got to think before you put your safety in other peoples hands.

The Sheriff's office said, "alcohol supected." For anybody that has been to the King's Royal we can bet that alcohol was the cause.
It has gotten so bad that I haven't been back in years. I hope Tony addresses the problem soon.
Prayers to the familes

You think he will take out the bar ???? with the money he makes from it. Highly doubtful. The only thing he addressed was the making sure you don't bring your own in cause of the law. I've seen alot over the years drunk wise but never remember anything of this nature.

For the USAC races I would agree. But for the King's it does get bad.
You don't need to shut the bar down, just don't serve someone who has already had too much. The same rules that are in all bars.

Both of these incidents happened before any track activity started.
Any alcohol that may have been consumed was possibly brought with them.

A race track DON'T need a bar in the first place & I know Earl put it in, blah, blah, blah. The guy said he needed to address the situation & whether or not it happened before the ACTIVITIES is irrelevent. It happened & I was just using the bar as a reference to a starting point per the fella's comment. What exactly could you do about it outside the property as long as beer, whiskey is available & they bring thier own. So you don't have to use a utensil to drink, Same concept though bend arm, open mouth, insert demon(s).

I understand the first two fell from a truck bed and the third was an ATV accident in the campgrounds, I thought the only thing aloud in the campgrounds there of that nature were golf carts and they had to have permit?
