Has ANYTHING been done to the fence there? Last time the UMRA was there all that seperated the pits from the track was a chainlink fence. Twice cars went thru it, once hurting people and the other was pure luck no one was hurt when Jason Goff went thru it, only the fact he went thru at the point where there was port a pots (which he hit and destroyed) kept anyone from being hurt, 20 feet either way and he was into people. The UMRA decided to not go back due to the unsafe conditions. Unless that deal has been greatly changed then I can't see how it's now safe to race there.
