I agree, the speeding in the pits needs to be inforced. Although it has been recognized and everyone has been told about the speed limit in the pits, its for everyones saftly that it be inforced. I would like everyone to feel and be safe.

you could do like nascar does and have the pace car go down to pit road speed briefly so drivers know what rpm range to run in the pits. than you could be more strict about pit road speed and drivers wouldent have an excuse for speeding.

the was a problem a few weeks ago that the track was going to fine and take points away from a driver but that has yet to happen so we will have to hope that pit road safety is a little more strict then blank threats

i wasn't referring to #22,i was most concerned,when our points leader in the late model series almost ran over dave brass...it was a real cloce call

I thought so, the penalty should be levied equally for all drivers. Areal good idea was suggested above. The pacecar should be able to go around pit road to show each class the recommended speed. Maybe just before the heat races for each class. if someone was to get hit you can't imagine the fallout. I DO KNOW FIRST HAND.
