It's certainly not the only track that has that issue, but the only one I've seen that posts a man there to monitor the situation.
That makes sense - it's easy to throw rocks from this side of things lol...

It was spinning all the way.
My wife always videos my passes. As soon as the rearend came loose at that speed she knew it was going to crash.
