first of all these events are put together for amateurs to get experience in a competitve environment for a marginal cost. some of thing you are guys are saying make sense but you need to look at it from this stand point. concrete & water barriers move and also cost money. in order to keep these events affordable we have to keep costs down. With every event we try to keep everybody's interests and safety in mind. any volunteer or photographer is required to wear the bright yellow or orange vest. This also why paying attention in the drivers meeting is very important, it was stated in the meeting that if you go off course take your foot off the gas and wait until you are back on course to continue.the spoters is a good idea it is just hard to get as many vounteers for these events that we need. finding additional ones would be hard. i believe that all precautions were taken and this is just labled as an unfortunate accident and that ever precaution will still be taken to protect everyones safety. there are a lot of things that could change we could barrier up the whole course, fence in the lot, but this would require a more expsensive driver entry fee, well over $100 and a minimum of $25 per spectator. this is just my from the outside looking in. i am also just volunteer like everyone else that is there helping. i am NOT an event cordinator. just so the record is straight
