We are all a little quick in jumping to conclusions here. This young man and his family apparently knew that they were getting into a dangerous sport, with all the perils and risk involved. Most often when a racer is killed or injured it is the racers that step up to help their extended family in need and not the Lawyers. I am sure Kevin's family will be under enormous pressure to sue for monetary gain, but perhaps they will do what most of us would probably do and move on with their lives.

I can only remember one law suit in behalf of a racer that was litigated and damages paid. Racers are a different breed. Law suits may or may not be filed. Only time will tell, However in the interim Race tracks all over need to work on (I hate to say this word) RULE that imposes serious penalties for leaving the race car to challenge another racer. If in the event of eminent personal danger they should exit but try to avoid traffic if at all possible. Things like this have happened in the past because a racer was trying to get away from a fire.
