That's what separates the veterans from the superfast young guys...the vets are able to race that hard and aggressively without running over people most of the time, because they've had a racecar bust their tails at some point in their career...they respect what those cars can do to their drivers...Clauson unfortunately became a veteran at a very young age when he went cage first into the fence at Wheatland, MO 4 or 5 years ago...tore some of the cage out and messed up Bryan's neck pretty bad...He is still a superfast young driver but you rarely see him put a wheel wrong or use the right side of the car as a big bumper.... One of these days if he keeps treating other cars that way Windom will end up getting his butt busted by a racecar. He will spend some time in the crash house and will respect the cars when he is able to get back in the seat....
Don't read this as I want it to happen to him, or anybody else, because I wish nobody would ever ever get injured racing. Unfortunately it's the nature of the beast and no matter how many times you see somebody else get banged up you really don't learn anything until it's you laying there wondering if you will ever get healed up enough to get back behind the wheel.
