I look at it like this-

My Mom spent 2+ years looking for a new home and it had to have the perfect dining room to hold Thanksgiving dinner. I kept trying to explain to her in my little black & white world that it is a bit short sighted to find a new home to spend the next 20 years and make your decision based on 1 day a year.

If the majority of drivers and track management feel there is a benefit from removing the cones, then we should remove the cones. The down side for a few drivers (& instructors) might be a necessary evil to appease the masses.

I feel that removing the cones "forces" drivers to adjust their vision and scan more of the track. It help ease the tunnel vision.

Nice dialog on this thread.
