It went around social media; it was video from a track worker or first responder or something. First words you hear is the worker saying "You ok, Tyler?" Tyler pops out and says "F this race track". Track worker/responder says come on it's rained for 2 days.

So now why did this person have a running camera to an accident scene. If he is a general track worker, I don't see a point. If he is a genuine first responder then video could be used for training or evaluation of what to improve when responding to a bad situation in racing. Which would be great IMO.

But, instead you can only assume this video went out to get views for whoever took it, and/or to some reason smear Sunshine for being upset at a very rough track and getting in a wreck.

Now the other thing to ask is; they got 2 days of rain, doesn't appear the track owns a sheep's foot so what they had is what they had. So is the race we got better than no race. I feel like many fans will say yes. And if I was there I may vote yes. BUT from the comfort of my own home watching the track condition I think no race would have been better. Because it really wasn't a race it was a game of jump the potholes, and it tore stuff up. My question is, why was Saturday night not an option to give the track an additional day to dry and crew the day to pack it in?
