I understand its normally park at your own risk for events like this, but it has clearly has gotten to a level beyond where that is acceptable.
For those who had break-ins or attempts, was FIRST notified. FIRST is required to file an incident report for any incident's that occur at an event. If enough of them are filed, then hopefully this will show them that something is wrong and something needs to change.

I went this year, not competing just spectating, I parked in the MAC garage each day and didn't have any issues. In 2012 I left my truck and trailer in the lot behind the dome from load in to load out and didn't have any issues.
