Bill,
I am totally 110% with you on that. In fact I am probably the most
conservative in that regards than anyone you'll ever meet!!!!
If you can't pay don't play and all that..............................

<<< This is exactly the kind of thing that gets missed at lots of tech
sessions!!
Tons of cars in line non-qualified people that get corralled/harangued into
doing tech that aren't trained properly etc. If this plywood comment is true
the organizational body could potentially have some liability, Waiver or not.
If they have safety rules that require "X" and don't enforce it there are
lots
and lots of sue happy people out there just looking for a payout.
Take your own position and make sure YOU are doing all you can to make it
safe
to meet the rules or even better safer than the rules require. >>>

While I understand everything you've said and why you said it, what about
some personal responsibility in the matter? Racers and their support teams
ought to
have their feet held to the fire first. They should be ensuring that the
car they bring to an event to compete is safe in all respects. The rules and
regulations are not secret. I think you owe that to yourself, your fellow
racers,
and the sanctioning body (in that order). Most sanctioning bodies are paper
thin
financially, and do the best they can to staff events.
