Yeah, and track drifters are pansies because they don't go to the edge.
And NASCAR is even more pansied because they have safer barriers.  Pikes
Peakers use spectators for guardrails.

I drove Pikes Peak 5 or so years ago (No, on vacation!), it looked very
familiar, except the rented Taurus didn't have a roll bar.   dB-)

I had to stop on the way down - the park rangers have temp gauges, and the
brakes were at 675.  Honest, I was pumping them!!  Which is why I rented a
car...
