The biggest problem with courses that hold Major touring races is barriers are usually pretty close to the racing surface so fans can get reasonably close. At tracks like Thunder Hill that don't hold NASCAR/Moto GP/ALMS events ect don't have to be as safe to accommodate people all around so there is less stuff to hit if you fuck up.

That said, I've done track days on tracks with guardrails all over the place and very close to the racing surface. I'd like to do about 4 days next year.
