You know, I never brought it up, but me and Kurt talked about it at the IMSA race there...

There's like, no security at Limerock. Literally. I drove in the morning of the race and since I had my TI gear on they told me to park in the teams lot. They seemed a wee confused when I told them no I'm just a spectator. Then I realized there was literally no one checking tickets when we pulled in or walked down by the infield. So what did we buy tickets for? Who's to say where the kids came in from but you would think someone would be at the track. Go Karts aren't exactly quiet.
