Glad to hear that K-9 was not seriously injured in the accident. Another reason shown to all of us that all safety gear required should be up to code and used by all participants at all times while in the race car!! Yes......it can happen to you!!
The weather is gonna be warming up soon, so be sure and hydrate yourselves as to prevent heat stroke. Just a friendly reminder from the director of the volunteer crew that is here to help ensure your safety and well being while at Barona Speedway.

I KNOW I AM REPEATING MYSELF FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON BUT HERE IT IS ANY WAY--
BARONA SPEEDWAY DOES NOT ACCEPT PRINTOUTS FROM IMCA REGARDING THE PURCHASE OF AN IMCA LICENSE. TO COMPETE AND RECIEVE POINTS AND A PAYOUT IF APPLICABLE, YOU MUST HAVE YOUR PLASTIC IMCA DRIVERS LICENSE. YOU MAY CALL IMCA AND COMPLAIN IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO SO BUT, WE ALREADY CLEARED THIS POLICY WITH IMCA IN FEBRUARY. ON ANOTHER NOTE, PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THE IMCA RULES ARE SECONDARY TO THE RULES AT BARONA SPEEDWAY AND YOU MAY ALSO CALL IMCA ON THAT MATTER AS WELL.I WILL NOT ARGUE WITH ANYONE FROM HERE ON OUT OVER THIS RULE. YOU MAY ALSO CALL IMCA AND COMPLAIN THAT THE IMCA TECH HAS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.THEY WILL TELL YOU HE IS A LICENSED TECH AND HAS BEEN FOR FOUR YEARS. IMCA KNOWS HE IS A CAR OWNER AND HAS BEEN FOR FOUR YEARS. WE ARE WHAT WE ARE AT BARONA SPEEDWAY. THE STAFF IS ALL VOLUNTEERS. WE DO THE BEST WE CAN.

Yes Frank, in 2014 for the dwarf cars a head and neck restraint system will be required. It is written in the 2013 rules that it's optional this year but will be required next year. If you already have yours, maybe it's time to start thinking about a containment seats which within the next few years could also be mandatory.

What a great time at Murray Manor Elementary School last night. The kids were great, and the enthusiasm was out of this world. Heard one of the kids say that it would be great if the little cars really raced, and was instantly informed that they really did race. Hopefully, we will get a few more fans out to watch the races. Thanks to all the cars that participated.

I've heard rumors that mandatory Hans or similar approved devices (I have the deFender) will be required next season. Is this true? having suffered a neck injury in a race car I am all for neck restraints. If only there was a miracle back device or tail bone device. Tailbone still gives me grief sometimes, from my collision w/Mikey 2 seasons ago.

Why doesn't everyone have a requirement to run a HANS? That would be safer than having the 2010 helmet rule enforced. Just my $.02 and why Earnhardt died

I don't think Mark was questioning the need for safety gear, He just wanted to know why the rule is 4 years when we have been used to 5 years. Is it timing when he bought it in relation to the SA rating? By the way Dale Sr.'s helmet was brand new.

We cannot stress safety enough when it comes to the racing environment!! It is our passion to do our best to see that all racing participants are equipped with the required safety gear. We as a fire and safety crew will make an effort to see that all are in compliance with the rule book as it applies to safety, weather it be on the racing surface or in the pits. See my post dated April 25th. Ignorance is no excuse when it comes to safety!!-

When it comes to driver safety, I don't believe it is EVER ACCEPTABLE to accept less than approved safety gear and I can say that many people who have experienced racing incidents will agree with me. These rules are written in blood, meaning that unfortunately someone else got seriously injured or killed (Dale Earnhardt) and we don't want this happening to anybody else. All drivers entering the track MUST ALWAYS have ALL of their safety gear on. This includes minis (I asked one little girl where her neck brace was and she asked what a neck brace was). We haven't lost a driver since Oct 1991 and that is because we are UNWAVERING on safety requirements! Receipts won't get a loved one back. Let's have fun, but live to do it again. Good Luck getting a helmet Mark!! Thanks.
