I was even told by one person. Why I expected the world of outlaws to have to come up with $1,000,000 to have a team like that travel with them. Now, just imagine if that would have happened last night at a track other than Knoxville. Where the corner workers were dressed in T shirts and shorts and had a 5 pound fire extinguisher. What a disaster it would have been. Instead of talking about a driver with minor burns on his neck, bruises and a broken rib. we probably would have been talking about the death of another driver in a terrible fire. I think it's high time the world of Outlaws. have a traveling safety team, fire crew with them at every race track. They go to. just for something like we've seen last night. usac. And the All Stars should have the same thing. Their driver's safety should be their number one concern. For everyone that thinks this is ridiculous. Ask Ask the drivers that went into that fire. To get Carson out. ask them if it's ridiculous to have a good safety team and fire crew. traveling with them. Ask them if they would like somebody like Medstar or Knoxville's team. See what they say. Somebody in T shirts or shorts with a 5 pound fire extinguisher. or someone in fire suits. and fire equipment that can put a fire out and save a driver's life. Do you wanna Rap my ass now? If you do find the video of last night and watch it a few times, Then think about it. Glen Murra

To your defense...I personally and members of my family and friends have been rescued by KPD, Howard County Sheriff Department, Galveston Volunteer Fire Department, etc. Although I appreciate and respect first responders, when it comes to racing the best example I see personally in person is The Lawrenceburg Fire and Safety Crew.
They travel to many many races in Indiana. They do an excellent job and I agree with a traveling safety crew. It does appear to help. Glad Carson is still alive, walking, and talking bc it sure as h*** could have been alot worse.
