    Hey, I am a security professional and I have a recommendation. (Hope you see this) get the best quality day/night (with infrared) cameras and put them on a pole about 3 feet off the ground down the main entrance. Two separate day and night dedicated cameras. Reason being then you can record plates of every single vehicle entering/leaving the property at any point in time. It’s super helpful for people causing trouble during operating hours and they dip before police can arrive or if someone drives up at night/non operating hours. If you need any more recommendations I can gladly advise on a well thought out system.

      at least one set, 3 feet off the ground is the key. Those faces who wear caps and hoods can be seen, nothing worse then the images from CCTV that look down on a 45 with no way to see a facial structure. Also With low height cameras you can do facial ID matching, so if someone comes in at a time they shouldn't you can match them to when they came in at other times. We had one place that had video of someone unknown taking goods during normal hours but arrived on foot, The facial ID had him hopping out of a vehicle 2 months prior and through the vehicle details he was ID'd.

    Y'all gotta realize, 1. the FF has already been vandalized so theres pressure to keep that from happening again, 2. Its under construction, and people can easily get hurt screwing around somewhere they have no business being at, which can also lead to lawsuits putting the FF and Garret into financial jeopardy. It ain't worth it to get a peek at cool cars and people.
    They clearly have a goal of opening this to the public, so just be patient and let them get this ready for you.

    It's no surprise that you've had "Interlopers". Remember a while back when you had to tell people not to come by the shop? People need to understand and stay away except when there's an event. If they make a mistake and get hurt at The Freedom Factory, it will wreck everything. Not just for Cleetus and the crew, but the rest of us too. So have some sense, and don't go to jail for trespassing. The video you shoot can be used as evidence.

      Yeah, I'm pretty sure there'll be call for some volunteer crews soon enough. (One way to do that is to just have people sign up to camp out for a few days before an event, and help set everything up, (I used to work with a non-motorsport-related festival where we did just that, except it wasn't on us to renovate the facilities themselves. :) ) ...in this case probably lots of us would like to help with the renovations. ...there seems to be a lot of local help there, but for others who can, same amount of travel time as to just go to an event, and it sounds like lots of us would be keen to be part of making this happen.

    I want to just sit at the top bleacher... all alone no one around... appreciate the silence... the tranquility... nothing beats the peaceful and absolute down to earth feeling you get at an empty racetrack... humbling to say the least. I use to go to the drag strip when I was young in Dallas early and I knew some staff and I would just sit up high and watch them prep the track before they opened the gates to spectators. My uncle knew people so I got press passes and all I used to spectate races from basically next to the strip. I could touch the cars while they staged at 12 years old it was amazing 🤣🤣
