Racing is a very dangerous sporrt and iff we look at some things diferently...like the cars are designed to 2016 standards of performance and technology and the tracks we race on were designed for performan and technology of 50's and 60's. The cars are going a tad fast for the tracks they race on. Second, with the containment seats and full enclosed bodies there is no room for movement in the cockpit and it is difficult to extracct an unconscience driver. Third, the officials have gone away from using the move over flag and the racers have to got to ignoring it when it is used. There is no longer prequalifications for drivers to race cars.....here in PA we have a kid who is not old enough to race a 485 HP 305 sprint car so his parents put him in a 900 HP 410 sprint car because there is no age rule.....does that make any ense to you ????? There are many reasons for tragedies.....its not just one thing...the cars need to be slowed down.
