It seems to me that additional course markers would be a good idea, primarily for
safety reasons.
After (for example) the first mile, when speeds are substantial, it could be helpful
to have course markers every tenth of a mile, instead of every quarter-mile. Some
racers have very limited visibility, and depending on things like optical distortion due
to the helmet visor and/or windshield, the view may be quite "fish-eyed", making some
of the course markers quite hard to see. The intended route should be more
"continuously" (or close to it) indicated, which could help someone make necessary
corrections by steering.
I suggest -- and would be willing to contribute to a fund for -- many more course markers
along the racing lanes, as well as a dense bunch of the markers at each turnout, so the
drivers/riders can easily know well in advance where to turn out, thereby avoiding rough salt.
Who's with me? Can we "vote" on this somewhere? Where should I send the donation?
