[quote=“priapism” post=73566]Any rentals available?
Do you guys think you’ll have the multitude of crashes that we had at our big west coast event just recently? Part of me thinks that putting that many “equal” cars on the track at the same time is just going to lend itself to crashes.[/quote]
Contact Drive-Gear for rentals.
There’s lots of reasons for crashes. Similar cars isn’t one of them. Similar cars just makes for good “driver oriented” racing.
I played the Laguna Seca videos many times to try to understand what the heck happened, but I didn’t make any editorial comments. I wasn’t there, don’t know the drivers, don’t know the tone of the community, and a couple videos doesn’t give a person an unassailable grip on Truth. I figured it would be best to keep my mouth shut.
Heck, I regretted being such a loudmouth re. the Summit crash here on the E. Coast.
You CA guys didn’t do much analyzing of the crash here in the forums. Hopefully you did that analyzing elsewhere tho. Driver’s who are over-aggressive, and/or have inadequate situation awareness, and/or just make bad decisions, need to receive serious correction. It’s up to your S Cal/NorCal community and your regional directors to apply that correction. If unacceptable behavior isn’t punished in some way, you encourage it. Don’t let it go. Discuss it, reach conclusions, learn from it. Use it as a future teaching point.
