Just saw on a couple of Facebook pages including 410 Wing sprint car driver Jason Meyers there was a horrible accident at the Marysville Speedway in California when a sprint car came off the track, the throttle hung crashed in the pits and hit a bunch of Spectators standing around accidently killing 2 of them.
Race was with the California Civil War 30 Winged Sprints.
Nothing on the tracks website yet but here is a link to the tracks website so you can read what happen if it's posted: http://www.mayrsvilleracewaypark.com
Check you racing sources to find more on this horrible tragedy. SAD Day for dirt racing. We all know the sport can be very dangerous and this proves it.
R.I.P. to those that where hurt in the tragedy.
