List,
It would seem to me that "Unlimited Innovation" has to fall within the
confines of safety rules. Being open minded is great, but we shouldn't
be so open minded that our brains fall out. I have been sitting by and
wondering what all this fuss about "rws" is about. I can't see why
anyone would want to do this when it seems evident that those who have
tried it want no part of it.
It is good to see that finally...it is understood that...at both the
lakes and at Bonneville, we run at the pleasure of the SCTA/BNI & USFRA
Organizations. They are the ones that work their butts off to make it
happen and the ones ultimately responsible for the safety of the meets.
All this discussion is amusing, but until the rules change, it is just
that....discussion.
