I'm not a regular NASCAR fan (watched it some when I was a kid and I'll watch the occasional gif on Twitter), so I'm asking this sincerely: what are the signs here that this crash is worse than average? I feel like every NASCAR crash gif I've ever seen looks absolutely horrific to the same degree as this. Is it being airborne, or part of the trunk being ripped off signalling the intensity of the initial impact?

The car got hit sqare on the window net while upside down by a car going 200 mph

it's probably good that they're not updating yet? I mean if he were DOA we'd probably know by now. presumably they're waiting until they assess him more, or get him into surgery, or just know more information before an official update. hopefully.

dale was dead in the car and it took like 3 hours.

yeah not trusting anything until it's from nascar or roush, too many people going to be trying to scoop the story.

If he had a neck he wouldn't have made it.

It had to be fuel, the only other thing in the car that would flow like that is the water for the radiator.

Was listening to the local sports channel this morning and the guys made the point that today we are going to hear lots of informed stick and ball talking heads talk about "does auto racing need to end?"

Incredible, I wonder what injuries he actually suffered, looking great for a guy that was cut out of a race car and listed in serious condition 36 hours ago.

Is there anyone more awesome than Schrader?

No, some may be equally as awesome but more awesome? no way.

I want to read his book but it's been out of print forever and I don't want to read it 300 bucks or so bad. scratch that, amazon has used copies of it now and got it for 3 bucks. It's been ages since I last looked.

yeah that sucked, it looked like it was going to be the last lap or 2 when he caught him.

I didn't see yesterday's race but I did learn via Twitter that the Kim Burton Cam is still a loving thing. Every other post was something to the effect of GET KIM BURTON OFF MY SCREEN. I always felt that way anytime Jeff was leading at the end of a race. Again I didn't see the race so I don't know how egregious the Kim Burton coverage was but I know it always annoyed me when Jeff was leading with 10 to go and it would practically be side by side on the TV of her like crying and freaking out and race coverage. Every once in a while they will show a shot of Samantha Busch or somebody else but it is like 1 or 2 shots for like a second each I don't know how Kim got to be such a camera hog back then.

there were a few long kim and race split screen shots.

After the xfinity race yesterday today's was a bit of a bummer IMO

It's probably the latter. 5 lugs is a better show but 1 lug is a better design for a race car in every other respect. I will miss 5 lugs though.

Nascar says they should gain around .3 seconds per side but I think it will be quicker.

big nipples big life

They look a lot more like street car wheels as well, it's been at least 30 years since average cars had 15 inch wheels with 60 height tires on them.

big nipples big life
May 12, 2014

single lug wheels are significantly stronger but no one needs that on a street car.
