This is of course the dilemma that any broad based club faces...you will
always have people who want to drive fast and seek thrills in the corners
and those who want to "drive to eat".  It may be a good idea to suggest a
rating system for coming events so that people can tell how much spirited
driving will be involved and if they want to attend.  Or you can have the
thrill seekers at the beginning of the pack so that later cars can drive as
they choose...this way everyone can have fun and be as safe as they wish.
