Its definitely an "Event Organiser" decision.. if you choose to allow combustible fuels on your premises, its your decision and responsibility..
Keep in mind that while a lot of people worry about bots going boom in the arena and blowing out the polycarb walls, its far more likely that an accident will happen in the pits while people are refilling, draining, repairing, drilling, grinding, soldering, sparking wires, charging batteries and so on..
I've mentioned it to SideTracked on a couple of occasions and been knocked back.. As usual, the problem is the insurance companies. Start tossing petrol about, and a whole new range of complications with fire marshalls, approval from fire deparments, trained staff, x number of fire extinguishers within reach and so on have to be covered..
I'll keep mentioning it every now and then, but I wouldnt count on being able to run ICE bots at Sidetracked any time soon.. perhaps at some of the private events we have planned.. _________________ Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people
