I hate hearing this. I don't understand why either. You can't sell it for anyone since it has been personalized. I don't know how hard it is to remove names, but it would leave a mark. You can't really sell these locals uniforms as collectors items (no offense to the local guys). There are idiots out there to steal anything.

Next time you're at a race, walk through the pits right as the feature goes green. You'll see how.

You are right about that. Racing is expensive enough without having to worry about this happening. I think a lot of times we expect to be among like minded people with the same ideals as us.

Because 99.9 percent of the time racing is attended by racing lovers who only wish everyone best for the sport. People get comfortable leaving their doors unlocked in generally crime free areas.


It takes one bad apple to ruin it for everyone and create hastles in going about your daily business.


I hate liars and theives. PERIOD! This seems to crop up every year at different tracks around the country. Sad.........

a couple suggestions (besides leaving someone in the trailer to "guard")
1) motion sensing alarm....turn it on when you leave for the stands
2) big ass rottweiler (this was our choice.....musta worked cause we never had anything missing )
