If you follow the links to the application, it's worded to the effect of, "Permit for open flame under a tent or canopy". Doesn't sound like that applies to a Weber next to a trailer.

It is directed at the Pro's where there are large tents for hospitality. Area fire marshalls inspect the areas prior to the events, this includes the vendors areas. This is nothing new, just an enforcement by the fire dept for potential problems that might arise.
As far as the sportsman pits are concerned there is no enforcement as it is the same as BBQing in your back yard. There is no need to worry. Now, if you are near one of our BBQs that we perform at the track, there could be possible dangers. Last time we had a small fire, we set Mike Mayhew's foot on fire, which was quite a sight and quiite funny. But he had it coming to him as he portrayed a little bit of pyromania while setting trails of fire from the BBQ to around peoples chairs via lighter fluid. Note: His sneaker smoldered a good 3 minutes before ignition, which he found out by standing up on it as he was hollering at some people. Ron Ortiz U/SA After a win for Mike, it gives a new meaning to Mayhews on fire.

Traction compound? ;-) Boy, that'd bring some "excitement" back to racing... BYOT
I've seen some tracks where your entry fee is just for the car, and the driver has to pay general admission on top of that! Electric hookups... lights at night... I've also encountered what I've coined "Carolina Math". One track doubled the cost to join points. Well, *obviously* if they double the cost, they'll make twice as much money. Right? Except only about 1/3 of the people from last year signed up this year. "Oops".

..It appears to be a track issue, and I can understand the purpose, but the language seems a bit vague . I am sure that there will be some clarifications. I was thinking it was more directed toward the vendors and Teams that have catering, etc...If I am wrong, then it's gonna a tough thing to police..if it was 5 bucks or something else more reasonable, most guys will just get one and deal with it. Not worth getting all fired up about. But someone tells me I can't smoke at the track, man, it's gonna get perverse. Cheers!
