A local couple from here in Michigan were among the injured. They local news got an interview and just want their racing friends here in Michigan to know that they’ll be at the track in June and again in August.

Maybe I was misunderstood by some folks; my point was that fans will buy tickets for sporting events, despite (maybe even because of) the fact that there is risk.

I hear that in Europe they still race on public roads with no fence of any kind between cars and fans. The bulls run every year in Pamplona despite frequent injuries and occasional fatalities. Snow skiing, cycling, skateboarding - all are prone to injury.

You want to be safe, play chess.
