You are correct randy,that the first car had a worker just watching the driver fall out of the car (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rant.gif) with the car burning while holding a fire bottle (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif) I was more concerned about the red car that was totally engulfed in flame's,but looking at the video again i don't see worker's on that side of the track.

The driver understands the risk's he is taking im sure,but to much rain on the track has to be delt with somehow.Either by stoping the race or using more parade laps.And if there is two or more classes than maybe a split start.

Some people just don't like running at a burning car(or anything else)becuase i watched a C5R corvette burn to the ground at LAGUNA SECA as a worker stood there with a fire bottle!MAYBE THIER THE SMART ONE'S!

I run at burning car's way to much.......................BUT I NEVER SAID I WAS THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHED (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I agree with ya John, I don't expect a marshal to run at an inferno and risk himself in a "low probability of success" rescue attempt....

With the Porsche though, the car was not burning so bad anymore, and the guy could have EASILY walked over 15 yards or so and either sprayed the extiguisher while the driver got out, or helped the driver..... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
