With the recent news about tracks and racing associations purchasing Air Fence, the question begs to be asked, why can’t tracks, particularly high-profile tracks in the middle of high-dollar expansions (i.e. Sears Point, $50,000,000 and Laguna Seca) provide Air Fence for all motorcycle-related events? In the case of Sears Point if they spent 1 tenth of 1 percent of their expansion budget ($50,000) it would be enough to purchase over 500 feet of Air Fence. Would I, as a rider, be willing to pay a little more fortrack time to have Air Fence in place? Yes, I would. While I realize this oversimplifies the issue, my question is not intended to “bash” any individual track. Although I am curious as to why tracks do not provide this proven life-saving safety feature.

1 foot of Air Fence =$90.00

a prevented death or permanent injury =
priceless (pardon the plagiarism)
