It's none of my business but....
Isn't it a little concerning that Nic was allowed by the safety crew, USAC, and his own crew to run the B main after that wreck? That was not your normal everyday accident getting that kind of air then landing on top of your cage. Someone also said his seat was bent at 45 degrees?
Only reason I bring it up is that I remember Brian Hayden and the accident he had. Everybody thought he was fine but come to find out he had a severe head injury. He ended up being a very lucky guy. Before this happened to Brian and opened my eyes, I was probably one of those who would fix the car and let my driver race if it was any way possible.
I'm not blaming Nic at all for running because 99% of all racers in his position would want to race if the car was repairable....He's a racer , thats what they do but.....thats when someone not wearing a helmet should step in if there is any doubt.
