Some 30 years later we have gotten to a place where we are working to prevent another Doug Wolfgang situation. Crashing is inherent and we all accept it, but fire is the silent one and biggest fear of all.

After last year's two fiery crashes, Knoxville prelim night with McMahan/Macedo and the qualifying fire of Zeb Wise in Pa its time we use our knowledge and technology for better protection. The cost of such is an added cost, but if you ask Wolf.....I"m sure he'd be the first to tell you that cost ain't $h!t.

I applaud the WoO for pushing the safety envelope. Never thought I would see this type of safety element in sprint cars.
