Thing is, once you let money get over involved and huge factory teams with massive budgets and sponsors in this roping off thing always happens.
It is even going on in rallycross for goodness sake, guys breaking down in a field in Norway or Germany and a team of mechs going over with a tarp to put over the front of the car. It's pathetic.
I would never go to WEC again after this year at Craperstone, couldn't get anywhere near the garages, all roped off and even if you walked down the side of a truck you were looked at as if you were some sort of criminal.
If I could have asked for my money back I would, one of the poorest shows and pieces of work I have witnessed I am afraid.
Even the bloody ELMS teams were doing it, which means it comes from up top.
And that means count me out buddy, you treat fans like second class citizens, you get no money from me.
