I think the main problem here is people are trying to JUSTIFY why they were even doing what they were doing in the first place. Saying stuff like "I wasn't even doing it for that long", or "there was no one around and I thought it was safe". I can TOTALLY understand people getting pissed off at comments like that because all the person is doing is trying to make it look like they weren't doing something as wrong as they were.
I'm sure you understand that there is NO justification for actions like that.
And I think this is what's annoying people.
Me personally I think it's good everyone can admit that they were wrong and that they were doing something stupid (hell I got caught doing the same speed, just on a different road).
Now all of you speed hounds join Team Trackday by coming out to the track hehe
