I witnessed Rusty Wallace flipping wildly down the back stretch at Daytona late '80's or early '90's, don't really remember the year. It was certainly earlier than the five to ten year period the orginial poster was talking about. I personally don't really see the need for this post, cars in both divisions have flipped over the years, sometimes the racer can luckily walk away and other times the accident ends tragically like it did for Dan.

The important thing is that something is learned to help improve safety for racers in all divisions from Dan's tragic death. Not how many times a car has gotten airborne in Indy Car vs Nascar.

Enough venting from me!
