A lot of debate going on here in Indy. In case you didn't already know, there was a 13 year old boy killed in a motorcycle accident last Sunday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
It was during warm up laps for a preliminary race before the Moto GP race. Kid lost it and got hit by another rider.
So some people are upset that a 13 year old was allowed to run 125 mph in a motorcycle race.
And obviously any kind of racing can be dangerous. So I guess you should expect the unexpected and live with what you want to do.
A spokesman for the racing league said this is the first time in 9 years that something like this happened.
I know it's up to the parents to allow or not allow their kid to race. They are the ones that have to live with consequences if anything happens.
I personally don't know what I would do. One side of me says if the kid is good, let him have at it. The other side of me says I couldn't stand the thought of losing my child if anything should happen.
Just wondered what you guys think?
