    like most issues this came out of Florida. the unit i saw pictures of from Sebring was pretty big, maybe 3 feet across. we asked the insurance carriers and they said the lack of regulation causes a problem and asked us to ban them for now. Now the list of things the insurance companies do not want us involved in are skydiving, cranes and drones.

    Hell add porno magazines, a bottle of Old Harper, a package of condoms, a box of tampons, some illegal fireworks, and one of those disposable enemas, and that sounds like one hell of a party...

    Dick, it seems like the longer term solution is to ban Florida.

    I can imagine the story behind banning skydiving at club racing events is entertaining.

    Only 146 entries so far. If your not going why? Be honest so our region can see the feedback. I expected more at a cool new track in the north east at a great location. We had more at a "non" race weekend a month ago....

    Is it cost? I know it was much less expensive to go to the soft opening? If so what is the breaking point for you? Is the weekend? Does it conflict with a big weekend nearby? We need to keep learning so we can pay the bills and get more cars on track!

    I have to work that Saturday and they are not giving a discount for Sunday only start at the back. If the entry fee were about half, I would have planned on attending. (I did ask but Ray saw how that went. LOL!!)

    I'm likely to pull my entry and work Contact Impound instead. I expect that to be a lot more interesting.

    I've heard people ditching because WGi is the week after and some people I have spoken to aren't too keen on the one session on Sunday.
