Another West Coast Track with Issues.

[Philip Saran]

If you want to start a "GO FUND ME" try one for Colorado, we lost our
race track in Morrison CO at the end of 2023 to make way for a COPARTS
facility.

The people you moved in across the fwy complained about the noise,
they are going to be so happy with the noise generated by big fork lifts
moving cars/truck and commercial car haulers in and out day and night.

Looks like Tough Mudder ) Spartan Race) is being sued not the track from what I read. ��

Read the same thing here in that SFGate news story, but rest assured since the (allegedly tainted water), was supplied by the track, traced back (again allegedly), by the authorities in CA that are the water policing agency stated was (allegedly knowingly tainted in advance, or an un-pottable water source.

They will name both the promoter and the deeper pockets from top to bottom and amount of alleged participants is huge, even with insurance and waivers signed in CA those mean zero if they can prove negligence or neglect damage awards could be astronomical.

There could not have been a worse place (except maybe a certain NY canal area, or South Eastern, TX maybe), in my mind to mix a bad mud soup and invite 5k people to roll around and trudge through it for a few days.

Event venues take huge risks, just really sad that a non-motorsports event is affecting a major motorsports venue, but someone may have made a huge mistake. And the legal battle is just beginning.

To be fair (if you go to toughmudder.com. they are the Spartan Race promoters section of the mudder obstacle courses and just look at what they set up as obstacles mix in water/soil in massive amounts of mud and water pits and dyes add barbed wire 14" above or Chain link fencing 6" above and rotating 500 lb blocks among others and lots of cuts, abrasions, and swallowed site water...there is no way to make any of it sanitary in any manner whatsoever. So, they pretty much get what they signed up for, a day (or weekend), as a Spartan. Gonna be dumb, gotta be tough! As the saying goes.

I know people that run in the same race near us, and every year people get sick.

If I read correctly, it sounded like they trucked water in and it was potable water , not good! . Sonoma has a strict water issue as they can only use so much by the County’s standards. I can?t see the Raceway being held accountable unless they supplied water?? Guess we’ll see. ��*♂️
