Was pretty nuts, I was yelling at Brad to pass him, and he did. Crazy crash. If Newman did not hit him, then Carl does not go into fence, just hits the wall.

Something else. In a situation like that you really got to be concerned for the spectators. Its amazing how fast those cars are going at Tracks like Talladega and Daytona. Before the restrictor plates, cars were taking off like airplanes on the straight away.

And then Edwards gets out of his car and runs to the finish line. Classic.

Did anyone see the Nationwide Crash a couple weeks ago. I think it was at Nashville. I think it was Brad Keslowski who flipped his entire car over onto the roof and back again onto four wheels and kept on driving down the track. That was awesome.

Oh nevermind, it was Nemechek:

I can't believe that crash. The car catapulted roof first into the fence at somewhere around 300 km/h precious yards away from a whole lot of people and no one got hurt. That thing was torn apart, crap was scattered everywhere. As much as I like giving engineers the gears (totally intentional) the guys who designed the car, walls, and fence deserve a whole world of credit.

So if he runs to the finish does it still count?

I'm not so sure sure I'd want to be dodging NASCAR traffic, but it is kinda funny.

And I thought this would be about Matt Kensith's crash this weekend...



That first crash is just crazy though.
