EXACTLY...that's like a replay of the Z at SCR9 last year...if he spins out the other direction he hits a Yenko Deuce head on instead of *only* doing a 180 up onto the curb. Which is precisely why, IMO, we've seen the last exiting burnouts at a Supercar Reunion...

I support that fully. Fun is fun, but let's remember what CAN happen. These are old cars. Brakes can fail; throttles can stick, too many things can go wrong. Everything has its proper time and place. We can play on Friday; let's use our heads Saturday.
