You have posted nothing in regard to the amount of racing at Reno because you don't know. Admittedly I am not sure, (at least I admit it) but I say Reno goes on for at least 9 days including qualifying and contains several hours of racing and displays each day, F1 for 3 days and is focused on 1 race, on the sunday. I need more than your word that they actually only race for a few minutes a day at Reno, therefore equaling and F1 race. I do not need to show you are wrong, you need to show you are right. I am open minded, David, I accept the possibility you might be right, but I follow F1, I know exactly how much racing they do. Like I said, no more than 6hrs the whole weekend. Again I suggest that over 7-10 days at Reno there is significantly more racing than that, what you are implying is that at Reno they do less than 1 hour a day including practice, qualifying, displays and racing. Unfortunately neither of us have the information needed to conclude whose point of view is closer to the truth, but you continue to attack my analysis even though you cannot truly support your own.

Anyway, the point was, we can all use numbers to bolster our point of view, the problem is that the closer you look, the more numbers you need to find to attempt to accurately compare things regarding something abstract like the 'amount' of danger. I believe people have a right to life. If people are having fun (even to the point of dying) and are not harming me or mine, I may object, but I cannot make them stop, and I shouldn't try. If you think it is really that bad then go and work in health and safety or become a paramedic. At least then you could help. What good is it doing you arguing here?

Peoples PMs to you are sent in confidence, the least you could do is respect that regardless of how you personally feel towards anyone at any given moment. If you are being harassed then take it up with the forum admins. Airing what people say to you in confidence because they just ticked you off is pretty low to be honest.

Sam.
