Default Re: Haven't visited a local track lately, I felt really old

Pretty sure you can thank "Street Outlaws" for this type of crap. Between constant oildowns and broken parts, due to "gotta have power adder(s)", and crashes due to poor car prep, "No prep" tracks and over powered, under tired cars, plus a 8 man "crew" for your "street car", to hold your car in the burnout, open and close the doors to let the smoke out of the interior, show you where the starting line is, and line you up in the "no prep" zone, it has been turned into a bit of a circus sideshow. Frankly, I have to wonder with all these shenanigans, and 75 people standing around the starting line, if these tracks even have insurance, and if it would be valid if the insurance companies were aware of how these events are being operated.
