Masami apparently had his hand luggage stolen on the way back from the TC Worlds in SA, and at least 2 people were carjacked between the track and the hotel, or the hotel and airport. Overall, the teams let the drivers choose to attend, and most people thought the event wasn't safe so decided not to go.

The 1/5th Worlds in SA in 2009 had 7 entrants.
