Except if there was no entry fee, or such. I doubt you'd be able to hold nathan liable. Depends how the law works in the USA. Hopefully he has a limited company and the company runs the race, he just works for the company.

Litigation often comes down not so much to the rights and wrongs but whether there is money to be made by taking action. So, Nathan's best defence, if he has no insurance, is probably to have little money so there is nothing to be gained by suing him, hence no point trying.
IndyPac is different in that did have a (small) entry fee. And I expect Jesse would be worth suing if someone was minded to do so.

I kind of assumed that too.
I'm pretty sure Jesse had organisers' liability insurance for IndyPac - and pulled it when his cover was withdrawn. But I think Nathan's approach is more informal. Whether that is sustainable, I don't know. What would force it would be if an insurance company who covered one of the hurt / killed riders decided to sue Nathan to recover their losses. It could then get very ugly.
