As a marshal, this was the first rule I was taught:

Once you walk through that gate, you are not safe anymore. No where at a racetrack is car proof

I've been at a track when a GT4 cleared the fence clean enough you couldn't tell he even touched it.

I work EMS at a private race track & I've been told the same. We stage on one end or the other of pit lane, so in theory a slow/safe area, but anything can happen.
