Yeah apparently "8 Die at Off Road Race" makes Ron's phone and email blow up.....sorry for the spectators, more sorry for the driver, very thankful it wasn't at our event.

I have everyone I know calling me and telling me how dangerous wheelin is... They just couldn't believe the drive let that happen??? I sent them all a link that I watched here showing everyone walking across the track, drinking and standing in the way and told them I bet the driver hates he ever paid to race that track for that race. One even asked me why the driver ran through that area like that I told them it was the track and the people should have been back. I really hope nothing like that happens around here.
