The Race Director is responsible for the position of marshalling posts, if you feel it is unsafe, tell them, they are normally busy doing a hundred things but most would be happy to accommodate your concerns.
Right, if your stood at your marshal point, you should be there watching your area of the track, so in theory, you should see any car out of controlling heading in your direction, now, we all know that half the marshals are either in a day dream, having a huff due to a bad run or just watching a car going round the track also, which makes them an easy target to be hit when they step onto the track to marshal, mainly due to them just not paying attention to it all.
It would be interesting to see if the BRCA could, not pay for it, but arrange a cover package that you could go for and get a group discount?
