    This isn't good news.
    Keep your weapons away from the race track. This is down right stupid for folks to act like idiots.

    Like how they put semi auto handguns, when the libraries, lefts are so on gun control and banning guns right now. I guess they change name of track "Headhunter" to something different.

          Drag racing in some areas seems to attract a hood element. The thugs can’t seem to keep their hood stuff in the hood and this kind of stuff is happening more and more, particularly in the grudge racing world.

              Sometimes when I go to Fayetteville, there is a drag race going on next door. There are are armed guards at the entrance to the drag strip because of the element that goes there.

                              I raced at Great Lakes Dragway in Union Grove, Wisconsin many times back in our drag racing days. Even back in those days there was a chitcago gang element present due to the proximity of the track to the chitcago metro area. There are upwards of 120,000 gang members in the chitcago metro area and most of those are not the least afraid of, or even inhibited by law enforcement. In fact they love it when they can congregate/infiltrate among a similar demographic in rural areas such as Union Grove, Wisconsin.

                              As was mentioned earlier, it's not nearly as easy for the pond scum gang element to fit in at a dirt track, but as Blackie mentioned there are plenty of guns at dirt track races. They're just not in the hands of gangs or that type of social element.
