Of course the sport is inherently dangerous & any track can kill. The idea is to make it as safe as possible, while keeping it exciting.
Seat belts, helmets, roll cages etc. are all things that made it safer, & I bet some old timers objected to all of that. hopefully they're still alive & walking. You don't want to go back to the "good ole", no seatbelt, no roll cage days, do you?
Its not like a bunch of do gooders are trying to ban racing. According to original post, DRIVERS are concerned....
