anyone see jr's crash this past weekend? Was in practice, driving one of the pratt and miller built C5's.
I imagine that these cars are built with no expense spared and by some of the best builders in the world (P&M). The fuel cel either was punctured or burst, there was a major fire, the car came to a stop and after about 3 seconds it ignited. Now I don't feel so good about my fuel cel in my admittedly low $$ racecar. Guess I am going to buy some new double layer nomex underwear and balaclava. dr |

He looked like he was just sitting there, with his head down. he was looking down to try and see the belt release, you couldn't see his hands but I'll bet they where real busy...
