Nope. I've just not entered the event for this sole reason (same reason why I haven't done the Busso ARC sprint).

You can take all the care in the world, but if you're unlucky enough to have a mechanical/brake failure, foot slip off the brake pedal and/or hit someone else's fluid they just dropped in the braking zone/apex, etc - FUCKIN BANG!

With the barriers positioned where they are, you should only do this event with a caged car & a HANS device.

A plastic barrier will still cause damage but not to the same extent as solid concrete.

Risk vs reward balance isn't there IMO.
