Once the incident with the BRZ and Merc happened and the fight broke out it was game over. People were so ego fired up, short of physically removing them from the facility there wasn't much to be done. It's hard to "control" people when they're ignoring your black and red flags and just doing whatever the f*** they want.
Everything bad that happened that day was just a single group of guys causing problems, and it was on and off track. These guys were going WOT down pit lane after being told to slow down, and all the care for track etiquette was thrown out the window.
You could ask almost anyone who tracks when was the last time they saw this behavior? probably never... This was a perfect storm of bad shit happening, and it's not just us. People everywhere are generally much crazier these days due to this pandemic and being in lockdown.
At the end of the day, if you are at an event and you feel the people around you on track are a danger or can't follow the rules. Then just go park your car and stay out of it. I would much rather be out a couple of bucks and not track for the rest of the day. Then put myself in a situation I feel could damage my car.

This. We take responsibility of our actions as much as we can.
TMP had a rough day. Northern Speed did too. All this because of 5 or 7 dumb fucks.
