about five or six years ago when Rico went back west and ran more winged stuff. One of the Kaedings caught fire. Rico stopped about halfway down the front stretch ran all the way back to Kaeding in turn four and was pulling him out. I think Port's was handled well. They did have a foam truck although if that wing hadn't been knocked loose enough for him to push it up off the cage. IDK, He'd of probably been singed pretty good.
Things can happen at any track at any time. I've seen some big pit fires as well. Always be aware what safety equiptment is on hand and that they're trained for most situations.
Can't say enough for Bobby and Connor Gompf and crew, I've seen them at the scene before the car stopped flipping. All are trained, All have fire equiptment and the track always has two ambulances and a Foam Fire truck., Have sawsall and jaws of life too.
Stay safe ya'll.
