Tall:
I never under estimate the audacity of the general public.
There are NO guarantees at Bonneville, period.
If I were you I would reconsider my position (attitude). Most of us that race there and have a lot of time and money invested are happy to still be allowed to race on that sacred ground. What with all the regulations, insurance issues and red tape I am amazed that we all still have the opportunity to race on public land. The SCTA has a monumental task of operating the Speedweek event keeping the venue in top shape, inspecting cars to race safe, operating and enforcing courses regulations on FOUR courses simultaneously, managing spectators, traffic, timing operations, pit activity, impound activity, staging lanes, helping racers/crews all with VOLUNTEERS...let me repeat that VOLUNTEERS. When spectators or racers exhibit an attitude such as yours it hurts all of us. NO ONE from SCTA, BNI, BLM, or Volunteers owes you anything. Racing and Spectating at Bonneville is a privilege and a privilege we guard jealously. So perhaps you should consider more than you selfish need to sit at the five mile mark or my I suggest you stay home.
my 2 cents
