[Fot] CAR RACING & DEATH

[David W. Riddle]

I very much appreciate my wife's understanding.

We will all go in our own time.  Be it on track, driving to the Super 
market, watching TV (that happened to an Uncle of her's last month) 
or asleep in your bed.

She had very little concern when our son started racing karts at 9 
(he's 16 now) because of the precautions taken and once he 
demonstrated sufficient skills she had no more concern.  Safety gear 
(suit, helmet, etc...) and the fact that there are the wonderful 
corner workers and EMT's on site.  Nothing like that available to him 
riding his bike or skateboard in the neighborhood.
