No one will take that unrealistic bet, obviously. Everyone here understands how it works, take what they write in that context. I think it is unfair to hint that any views on this are due to ignorance in this community. If we are going to have this discussion let’s give each other a bit of credit.
And when people sit down to watch this racing they are doing so with a decent level of knowledge of this. Accepting the compromises that have been made and watching for what it is. The positives, for them, of Daytona, sports cars, camaraderie (competitors, 10-10ths members), or even the physical experience of being there, outweighs the negatives.
But it is an interesting topic, and I’ll give my view on it in a minute, and it deserves to be discussed.
