Glad he is OK.

Did he actually go out of the park or is that just a shot of the wrecker dropping the car off in the pits?
Either way, that was obviously a big hit. Glad to hear Brian's OK.

Glad to see he walked away! Hope he can get something for the Little 500. He is defiantly always my pick to win!

That was a pick of it getting dropped in the pit. Later, the same wrecker picked it back up and drove it over to the shop for 'em.

Hardest Hit I have seen at Anderson, First time I felt sick to my stomach waiting for a driver climb from the car. So glad he is OK.

Strictly by the watch -

Windom and Pierce were in the 11.20 - 11.30
Holingsworth looked really good running 11:30's
Several cars in the .40 & .50's

Transponders should be on today.

Looked a lot like the car John Godfrey tested on the crash sled a couple of years ago. It folded in the right places and didn't fold where it shouldn't. Guess it did it's job. Looked like a really hard hit. Sure glad it came out OK, sometimes I wonder about racing.

Brian is 46 years old I believe...

I'll bet he'll feel that hit for a while.
Last May was a huge hit at the fairgrounds and now this one for him. Two huge May crashes consecutively.
It knocked the engine loose in his crown car last May, that's how hard he hit the wall head on there and I think from the looks of it, this one was worse!

I'm very, very happy he's ok! I'll bet he's sore though!

They had to take the car to the shop on a wrecker! ... damn!

He looked aok this morning. Didn't complain at all.
