I have lost friends on motorcycles on the highway,but I wouldn’t ask them to stop riding , nor would they ask me to stop.

I understand your concerns, they are legitimate, but it is hardly feasible to place Airfence on a course as long as Isle of Mann. Many types of motorcycle racing have been banned over the years in America, Sidecars,Board tracks,all because of dangers, it’s a dangerous sport, for every motorcyclist killed there are 20 injured, some seriously.
I don’t believe I have ever seen a Dirt flat track racer without zippers in their knees and shoulders.I watched a kid go out one night and break his ankle, taped it up and went out and broke the other.

I realize your perspective and I would never place myself in that position eityher, but for those who want it,I wouldn’t ban it. Any more than I would ban horse racing or jumping.

Different strokes for different folks.

One of the HD channels runs that race and some of the Rally courses.

I think it’s HDTV.
