I already said Im dropping this UNION County deal. My point was I've seen dozens of races at tracks with several serious safety issues and I'll also point out that no track is probably 100 percent safe as far as foriegn objects. Exposed fence post, old light polles ect. Cars hanging from fence post, cars landing in small lakes. It's dirt track racing and some of these tracks are running on shoe string budgets. Some care and show it, others just provide a place to run. All I was saying is that at least three of the Sprint/Midget weeks tracks there were some real issues that perhaps went un noticed, perhaps not but were allowed to continue and one of them upon further review is dangerous to the fans.

Its racing, It's inhearently dangerous and I doubt anyone would go if it wasn't. This doesn't mean you should if put yourself into more obvious danger but there is always going to be a point of acceptable risk YOU HAVE TO TAKE or it would never happen. From driving to a fan. Thats not pointing fingers at anyone. it's just what I see. At just about every track there is something, Are things said about them at these shows? I know some of these issues have existed for years at certain tracks and Im not talking USAC alone either. Its all drivers responsibility to say something just as it is a fans responsibility to not sit by a low fence. Its also a tracks responsibility to fix the things they can.


Have a nice and safe rest of the season. I plan too.
Chuck
