If you ever try it, your opinion will change immediately. It's impossible to have that much fun on a paved circuit.
Great training too if you do a lot of driving/racing.
She is just offering advice, until her advice is ignored.
Then it will be an order and enforced by State Troopers.

Despite the rending of garments and foaming at the mouth by the media, I expect there will be no effect on virus numbers from this event.
I worked at Sodrac, the dog track in North Sioux. A lot of the people I worked with also worked at PJ off and on.
