BTW -- I got a ticket on Sunday. 69 in a 40. It's a good thing for me the cop wasn't there 10 secs earlier.

Don't worry, WTD will probably be WSB free.


I hope we have special banner ads again this year!

I actually have only seen 1 accident on the Dragon, in all my visits, and 1 more on the Cherry hole. Both were motorcycles going off. The one on the Dragon the guy fixated on the cliff and drove into it (slowly), the other the guy ran out of grip/skill and rode the bike across the the road into a guardrail, which spared him a ~300 foot fall.

But I'm pretty sure the first DBR and the most recent DBR were the only events where there wasn't at least one incident. And both those events were filled with relatively older / mature drivers.

Obviously. Mabey this is why you couldn't keep the Black Nugget together.
