Yeah, a few people that were there told me it was a big hit.
I am not in any slight way a NASCAR guy but in the aftermath I did become a bit more of a fan of Kyle Petty. Typical to the **** show that is Speed channel "reporting" on racing they asked Kyle if he thought the short tracks were too dangerous. He rather gracefully handled it by saying that local venues are as safe as they can be when you consider the cost of the cutting edge safety technology. He went on to point out how in the last 10 years neck restraints went from something a few guys in Europe had to commonplace at every track of every kind in the country and that he expects the same to happen to energy reducing walls and other such advances.
