looks like a $500-$1000 fine and loss of license for 1 year.
This looks like the part they are trying to get you under. "2. In any manner participate in, coordinate, facilitate, or collect moneys at any location for any such race, competition, contest, test, or exhibition; ". The problem I see is that you had to do something to make the race possible or easier. the deffinition of all these criteria don't include just sitting on your ass doing nothing but observing. I would try to find as many people that were there as I could, to see what you as a group could do. The argument in court would be something like." Your honor in order to fullfill the provisions of this statute I would have had to do something to enable this race to happen, or have made it easier. Since I did nothing to further the intentions of the racers and had I not been there the race still would have occured. My absence from the location would not have changed any part of the race, therefore the criteria of this statute do not apply to this incident." Now I am not a lawyer ( I tell the truth too much) but having several friends in law enforcement and having experience in law enforcement, this would be how I would approach it.
