Re: I Already Have Pit Vehicle Insurance!
 

Kid's are not allowed to operate pit vehicles per NHRA rules, I know because my kids would hound me like crazy. They (NHRA) are at some times lax about it, but I can assure you parents get notified of it. The rule however is in place because of adults and it was an incident at Gainesville.

I must have missed this. Where was the notice? Thanks

At just about every race I see kids joy riding in golf carts. Whoever is supposed to be policing that isn't doing a very good job.

Re: I Already Have Pit Vehicle Insurance!
 

Absolutely correct, but they can't ride skateboards or bicycles or golf carts, and they aren't going to sit on their hands all weekend so the parents need to make sure they're at least being very careful. Unfortunately the parents that are drunk and disorderly most likely aren't policing their children.

Your insurance protects you. Their insurance protects them.

Membership fees? Entry fees? Crew fees? Licensing fees? Certification fees? You would think between these 5 charges they’d have enough to get some insurance? Why do the racers have to pay for this on top of all the other fees we pay? NHRA national events are the only places I’ve raced at that charge you for this.

We are just a single team, but short of US Nationals (and only going to this because it’s 8 miles from our shop) it’s driven us away from attending national events.

I guess I can’t blame them if racers just keep coming and keep paying.

NHRA drove me away years ago. Apparently, the addiction is strong enough to keep car counts up. I agree, you can't blame NHRA if cars keep coming through the gates.
