i'm wondering if they should re-vamp the way they race somehow. i'm not sure you can have 3 people die in four days and expect the sport/hobby to be successful

Actually all we know about Jason is that he isn't in a "life threatening" condition. No one seems to be able to say if the back injury is serious or not. I am keeping my ear to the ground.
