The serious street races around here have no big crowds around, and want no other types of excitment right then except racing.

at least your thinking a little bit. but stuff happens, even at the best tracks accidents happen. at ALL reall tracks there is some form of emergency people there who are paid to wait for an accident to happen, and get there as soon as something does happen. if something happens out at one of your organized races how long will it take for an ambulance to get there? or will you even call an ambulance since you were racing? i'm sure you know the risks and you must be willing to take them, but personally i'd MUCH rather be at a track.
