As the popularity of the hornets grow, they are slowly replacing the sprint car as the most dangerous thing on the track. As unfortunate as this case is, all to many times we go to the track and they are rolling them over nightly. The short-narrow wheel base make this inevitable. The entry level price to these cars are part of what makes them appealing but the entry level workmanship and safety equipment eventually shows its self.
Im going out on a limb but think a good idea would be a beginners safety deal to where the racers could come talk to the track officials. This could be focused on any class but the hornets is where its at. 95% of the people don't make that first lap in a USAC ready sprinter...
If learning the finer points on how to fabricate a car, maintain that car, and the proper safety equipment could only save one racer from serious injury or worse it would be more than worth it.
It starts with one...
