To be clear, I'm not crying about safety or who's fault this is/was.. I was merely pointing out what happened and thinking about Robert in this terrible time for him. Stevensville (Hi Mike!) Pointed out that RHR could have easily been the worse part of this wreck, and I don't disagree. But I really didn't think the post would turn into what it has. I like others like to watch those guys run wheel to wheel and NOT wreck, especially at great tracks like Pocono. I know it will eventually happen but hate to see it.
In fact, I wonder if Robert was injured when the car hit the wall with the bottom of the car, and not as much as the "fence" imact. The DW12's have some energy reducing foam under the seat and that's it for underside crash protection.
