I sent the guy at SCCA who runs TNIA nationwide a long email about my experience. He responded with "thanks, I'll look into it" and who knows if they ever did.

I get that they want to make it a relaxed "fun" environment to get people into the sport, but people can die or get seriously injured doing this.
