PROPAGANDA FILTER... learn it, use it, nurture it, research and think for yourself!

What do you not understand, there is very little government control in the racing industry. We police ourselves responsibly, that is how we keep the government out.
You have proven yourself an individual that professional drivers rather not have on the track.
Stay on the local hillbilly dirt track please. Actually, perhaps a smash up derby would be more appropriate for you!
P.S. I'm the furthest from a leftist you can get. 🤣
Leftist/libs are all for lawlessness. If they ran a track, it would be chaos.
English

I don't care what dumb extreme leftist lack of logic you try to say to justify government overreach. People are responsible for their actions and those of us with brains and maturity do not appreciate our life choices being regulated by some overbearing boomers who think they're our collective parents. Now please:

Birth control is accessible, but there are too many irresponsible dumbasses, trailer parkers and ghetto dwellers that just don't give a crap.
Scumbag Hollyweird (media, including music) encourages, glorifies and glamorizes promiscuous lowlife behavior. Porn encourages the most vile and deviant irresponsible disease spreading behavior.
Parents are negligent in raising their children proper.
For all I care, shove that birth control into every orifice to those kinds of irresponsible people.
English

@Vons700 @Saganismm If you allow women to control their own bodies and provide for easily accessible birth control abortion rates would be greatly reduced. You don’t want that.
You also don’t want to provide assistance to help support the women with unwanted pregnancies.
You want to judge.
English

You need to learn a little bit about the racing sport and industry.
Most safety standards are set by internal governing bodies and racing organizations like the FIA or NASCAR/NHRA. These are private sports associations.
They oversee technical regulations like how a car must be built (roll cages, fuel cells etc., and driver safety gear like mandatory use of HANS devices and fire suits. They also oversee licensing and PR.
There are also technical inspectors and experts hired by the racing boards.
The safety regulations for a racing track are overseen by a combination of global governing bodies, national sanctioning organizations, and the despised insurance companies.
FIA inspectors examine the track "centimeter by centimeter," using computer simulations to calculate runoff, area sizes, potential impact zones etc.
There is also a grading system.
There is some federal or state government oversight regarding occupational safety laws which can involve OSHA.
Government is also involved with regulating track insurance and keeping the public (spectators) safe.
This varies from nation to nation.
English

@Vons700 @DefiantLs I like to keep my government reasonably civil and "safe" and free from overbearing and overreaching individuals trying to take away personal freedoms through legislation.
English

@d_lo187 @DefiantLs The more idiots on the track the more rules are necessary. I like to keep my sport reasonably civil and "safe" and free from suicidal lunatics/morons as possible. If they don't like it, they can go to the local dirt track.
English

@Vons700 @DefiantLs Imagine being proud of advocating for more government intervention and less personal responsibility. Absolute idiocy.

I am in the USA. The trans-gender trend is a contagion that is intentionally being catered too and encouraged by the medical community and authorities.
Children are innocent., Children realize there are only two genders. Children are not sexual; they are pre-sexual; they have no concept of sexuality as adults do. Sadly, when they become the victim of grooming, is when they get confused.
When a boy plays with dolls or wants to cook with mommy, or a girl wants to play soldier or with race cars, it is done in innocence and in no way has any bearing on what their sexuality will be when they mature to adults. Only when exposed to the current grooming trend is when they become "self-aware" and confused. It is an intentional assault on their psyche.
The encouraging of "gender dysmorphia" and deviation from the norm is child abuse. Making such self-destructive behavior trend is unconscionable. It has become a social contagion that is ruining our youth's future and lives.
Impressionable youth are deliberately exposed to various types of grooming (media/school), not to help so called "gay" youth, but to sexualize youth and make trans/gay trend, even encouraging kids to experiment, thus causing gender confusion etc.
Some teenage youth will use it in their rebellious stage, often leaving scars for life.
Age-inappropriate books being pushed on children in schools and school libraries are now the norm.
There are copious amounts of controversial explicit material about gender identity and LGBTQ being pushed.
Many kids exposed to this material may start innocently copying/playing trans/"gay", not knowing the seriousness of it, since they are not sexual yet.
That is part of the grooming. Confuse them young.
There are many examples of material being pushed, like NY State Education Dept. tweeting a book recommendation of Maia Kobabe’s graphic novel “Gender Queer: A Memoir,”. This is adults only material being pushed on kids.
Controversial books about gender identity and featuring LGBTQ Characters “groom” children not only into confusion but even desensitize them to sexual abuse.
It is easy to see it is not about gay rights anymore but about indoctrination.

MORE TRANS VIOLENCE
İsa Aras Mersinli, who identifies as "non-binary," shot up a school in Turkey killing at least 9 people, including 8 students and 1 teacher before dying from stab wounds.
12 others were also injured in the shooting with some in critical condition.
In a leaked manifesto, Mersinli claims that he was "lonely" and was "better than everyone. Because I am the ultimate being."
Transgenderism is a threat to society

@Tankslider @DefiantLs Nope, mostly my writing. Only a small part is AI, which I pointed out.
Nevertheless, AI or not, it is all fact.

The are so-called "Touristenfahrten", (open track day) do not have restricted speed limits (except for several specific zones and during incidents), nevertheless during Touristenfahrten the track is legally considered a one-way public toll road were passing on the right is strictly prohibited, and slower drivers must stay to the right and use their indicators to show faster cars it is safe to pass.
I have not personally been on Nürburgring but have been on the Hockenheimring (track) many times when I lived in the region, which has similar rules. They had open track day every Thursday unless there was a big race weekend coming up.
English

@Vons700 @d_lo187 @DefiantLs On open days the Nordschleife is legally a one way, derestricted public toll road, not a racetrack.
All German road traffic laws apply.
And your idea that racetrack designers are responsible is absolutely asinine. Go live in your safety bubble and leave the rest of us alone.
English

The Nürburgring (track) was designed a long time ago. Newer tracks are designed with more safety in mind (as normal reasonable drivers prefer, unlike irresponsible suicidal lunatics).
My point was in regard to designing new tracks or the renovation of older tracks.
The design of a track and the safety "mechanisms" utilized contribute to safely navigating the track and definitely determine the severity of the outcomes of incidents.
Track Driving (Line and Apex) is a different animal than street driving.
The Nürburgring track saw major changes in the 1980's & onward.
Closing down the dangerous historic Südschleife (south loop) section.
Adding modern racetrack tech, like:
SAFER Barriers, which are steel and foam energy reduction walls that replace solid concrete with "soft" walls that compress on impact to absorb G-forces.
.
Run-off Areas consisting of vast paved or gravel zones allowing drivers to slow down safely before hitting a barrier.
TecPro & Tire Barriers which are specialized interlocking barriers that absorb high-speed kinetic energy more effectively than old-fashioned tire piles.
Catch Fencing, an advanced mesh fencing designed to keep debris and cars within the track while protecting spectators.
Also, Medical Infrastructure, purpose-built on-site medical centers and rapid-response teams with advanced life support are now mandatory.
If not for these additions the Nürburgring would be permanently closed by now.
Also, all the improvements on racecar/driver safety like 5-9 Multi-Point Harnesses, Fire-Resistant Suits (Nomex), fireproof gloves/boots/undergarments, Full-Face Helmets, HANS Device, Halo & Aero Screens, Extraction Seats, Monocoque Survival Cell, onboard automatic fire extinguishers, Fuel Bladders, Safety Nets, Master Kill Switch, Earpiece Sensors, Bio-Sensors, etc. etc...
Since the "blood sport" era of the 1960s the death risk in auto racing has decreased by approximately 90% to 95% since the 1960s.
According to Grok~
The 1960s "Death Trap" Era: In top-tier racing like Formula 1, roughly one in every three to four drivers who started the decade would not survive it. During the 1950s and 60s, fatalities were so common that five-time champion Juan-Manuel Fangio noted 30 of his fellow competitors were killed over his 10-year career.
👉(Not to even mention the injuries, some with total body paralysis.)
I have been advocating for race industry and racetrack safety for decades. If it was not for reasonable people like me advocating for safety advances the sport of auto racing would have probably been prohibited by now.
You're welcome. 😉

@Vons700 @DefiantLs Of course everyone wants more security but that has a cost, which will make it unaffordable for everyone to enjoy it. Currently it is less secure but at least cheap to run. I respect that you are risk-averse but let others decide for themselves if it is worth it or not…
English

I understand your point, but there has to be a balance.
But just think,

P.S. The safest and least cost prohibitive form of "real racing" would be Autocross (against the clock with no other drivers on the course/track).
