Maybe it is just me...
...but the safety card has been beaten to death. I believe if a driver feels that it is unsafe to race then don't drive. I wish the would bring back the old Targa Florio and the old Nurburgring. Racing is dangerous and not for the faint at heart. The last bastion of true roadracing is only present at the Isle of Man. The annual race for motorcycles on a 37 mile course on the public roads is dangerous. Since it's inception in 1917 (I think that is right) this race has averaged two deaths per year. Every once in a while someone tries to stop it, but the racers persist in its future. Are the only real roadracers on two-wheels anymore?
