So is NASCAR more dangerous than Indy car? Seems like the dudes have gotta be crazy in Indy car. Their god damn head is sticking out of the vehicle when going 200 mph. What if they flip or get rammed and tip ober? Looks like those cars could be light and have a chance to fly in the air somewhat if getting airborne

No not even close. Open wheel is way more dangerous. NASCAR has made leaps in safety post Dale~

In Formula 1 the last racing death was 20 years ago - Three-time Formula 1 World Champion Ayrton Senna. Although, there have been serious career ending accidents.

According to IndyCar.com over the same 20 years, seven IndyCar drivers were killed in races.

In IndyCar, the danger is everywhere on oval and having 230 mph cars side-by-side do not make the sport safe. In Formula 1, the peril is in cornering. While a mistake on a road course can send a Formula 1 driver spinning off the track, a mistake on an oval can send an IndyCar flying into a concrete barrier.

IndyCar has come a long way with safer walls and barriers and have followed some of Formula 1 safety advancements. Indianapolis Motor Speedway has copied Formula 1 and now has a mobile state-of-the-art trauma center at every race.

Nevertheless, there will always be risks associated with racing, no matter the motorsport.

The pinup has been struggling unlike a great showing at Kansas. She is also having engine problems. The 600 is a beast on equipment and drivers~

Guess it is better for her to get off the track.

Time for her to try on some cute outfits for Stenhouse, whenever he gets home.

j/k

Wow...RNR, your boy has led 102 laps...

JimiJo led 90 laps...and NASCAR.com freezes my computer.

I love that commercial - Little boy says, "I dream of being a NASCAR race car driver." Little girl says, "Me to."

The kids are so cute.

Pepe Silvia 05-25-2014 06:58 PM

McMurray doing it again. ROFL

He has a rocket. I think he is laying back the has to pit no since tearing up the equipment. The time to press is a ways off~

Dylan 05-25-2014 07:02 PM

Kurt Busch says that he may have dropped a cylinder.

I hope not.

RNR 05-25-2014 07:04 PM

Well f*** me that stop made little sense~

A long way off.

I have a feeling this is Kevin's year. He has been nothing short of amazing so far this season.

I missed a few minutes...Do you mean that Kevin should have stayed out during the last caution?

Did he take two tires?
