Subaru Crashes at CSCS Time Trial Event
We can all learn from this incident. I dont know how this event was operated, or what safety measures were in place, but it appears as though just about everything that were taught to not do was done at this event. Everything from the drivers, to the spectators. Not sure why the organization, let alone the track, would allow all those people to stand there. Im guessing that theres a wall there for a reason. Cant really blame the spectators because they obviously dont have any experience, so they dont know any better. But you would hope that the organization and track should know better than to allow a bunch of people who probably dont have any experience to practically camp out on that wall.

wow, there are so many things wrong with what just happened. there is no reason for that hay bail there in the first place. that being said, during practice runs the drivers should have been made aware of its existence, and hopefully someone coulda asked WTF its doing there.
some drivers wearing helmets, so apparently werent? im hoping they took them off in the integra, but that woulda been pretty fast. and had that subie been another 2 feet to the left, those guys standing there wouldnt be alive and well.
poor all around performance and apparently unsafe event. all sides have 2 stories but obviously a couple things wrong there. hope everyone was okay

Lots of bad - yep.
We had a guy in our TT group this weekend who did about everything wrong too. And eventually got demoted!
- Session #1 (practice) -> went 4 off; way off; on the 1st hot lap. Not only that, he nearly rearended me as he was flying into a turn and I looked back and seen tire smoke. Luckily he navigated it back to the track safely.
- Session #2 - went 4 off.
- Session #3 - went 4 off. Took his helmet off while the session was still hot. Then got out of the car!

Ya stupid all around. Love how the chic ridding shotgun in the integra just gets out in the middle of the track and waddles over like she's on a highway and can do something. May make sense to get out somewhere else if there is NO safety crew, but still. Either these are very trusting or very clueless people.....ya i'm going with clueless.
