I would never want to be a on track with a clique of assholes with bottomless wallets and egos going beyond the sun... The guys who caused a lot of the drama aren't apparently banned either, they got a refund and said they couldn't go to one day or something.

Why would I ever want to go to a Northern Speed event knowing that some of the people that caused this could be present.

You do realize that the day you're talking about was an open lapping day run by TMP and had literally nothing to do with Northern Speed, right? Even Northern Speed issued a statement saying none of that garbage would be permitted at their event.


The only things in common between the two are which track Northern Speed had their first event at, and the corvette that burned down was possibly entered as a competitor before the fire.
