I've heard some of the racers there talking **** about the "kids" who come to watch and hang out. Several times. Some of them, individually are nice people... but when they run thier mouth like that, it lends to the perception that it is an exclusive place.
Despite, this, the damage, however slight, or not slight, was stupid. And wrong. Hopefully it will be a one time event. I took my daughter to the track a few times and she really dug watching it. There are some great people there, and I know a lot took offense. The hope is that some people don't take it upon themselves to single out others as "guilty" because they feel they look guilty.
