Anybody see this? I've seen them looking around. Do they need to be SCCA members to run?

Car Info: 05 Audi S4... trying to mod the driver!!!
Yes this was at the stick a few summers ago during a BMWCCA autocross... they showed up because we had an X5 that got up on 2 wheels and slammed back down hard on the passenger side. The passenger had previous back trouble so we called the medics etc just to be safe. Fire, police and ambulance then ran the course.
We had seen the X5 run a bunch of autocrosses without any incident but a combination of suspension loading and unloading and slight offcamber turning really upset it. It got on 2 wheels almost 45 degrees up.
How do I know this???? I am a regular at the BMWCCA autocrosses as I used to be a longtime bmw owner. I was there autocrossing my 1999 legacy gt wagon bw (before wrx).
