You are not understanding the big picture man! It only takes one person to get hurt! How do you think people will react when they find out the guy had no safety gear on? Would you want your million dollar company on some unsafe racing facility? I am 100% guilty of racing in a tshirt and shoes, hell I even raced in my moccasins one day. But I'm not going to sit here and say fuck safety gear because I will never have a issue. I race in small areas with not a lot of people at the event. You pros are calling yourself "pros" but yet your stuff is set up and Enforced just like at the bumfuck tracks I have been to.
