Hi Dwight.Anybody who used to watch the street racing on 1st Ave in Brooklyn (Bush Terminal) will know what you are saying.Actually there were nights when the crowd parted like the Red Sea when the cars left the starting line.

Lax tech at our old track KCIR has helped with this thought process. And a local 1/8 mile unsanctioned track reinforces the same thought process. Just curious what other parts of the country deal with.

Thanks

My local track is an unsanctioned outlaw track. Reputation wise, it's not great. It is a place to race and test. My take, if one doesn't feel comfortable at a track, use your best judgement.
