  • Crazy pic from McNish crash

    It actually lands back on the trackside of the barrier. http://twitpic.com/5alcv9

    And another of Rockenfellers aftermath: http://twitpic.com/5ab7qn

    Hard to believe these cars held up as well as they did - especially Rockenfeller after seeing the video.

      It did take a while - in both cases, I believe they had to replace the guardrail system.

            Every time I watch the video everybody is running away except that guy running to save his motorcycle. LMAO!!!! It looked like the car was going to land right on it. What was that guy thinking???? I don't think he had enough time to get on it and drive it away. Check it out.

            When I was at Talladega when Allison took the fence down it took 2hrs and 45 min to fix the fence. That was a long red flag. It was a good thing when Edwards took the fence it was at the checkers. I bet if it wasn't that they wouldn't have restarted the race.

              it took a long time for the rockenfeller crash to be cleaned up because of all the debris on the track and to rebuild the guard rail.carbon fiber is nasty stuff when it's broken apart.it doesn't do the tires any favors either.
