Cleary you've never run at SIR (Seattle International Raceway) where there's
plenty of runoff in every direction. The only problem is that the runoff
areas are full of trees--mostly alder, but a few mature Doug fir to raise
the ante.

When I was at Waterford earlier in the year for a "hot laps" type of event,
I
found the track to be wonderful fun, but lacking runoff in many corners.  It
seemed that the price of failure was potentially much higher than at most
tracks I frequent.  There didn't seem to be many places to pass either.  I'm
wholeheartedly for the FOT event, though.
