Folks. Everyone on here should remember why sprint car racing is so great. Fast, Action Packed, and Very Dangerious. They used to write-off a driver once a week when my Dad started in sprint and midgets. And that didnt stop the great drivers. They understood that any given night they could die in a crash. THIS IS STILL SPRINT CAR RACING AND PEOPLE WILL GET HURT OR KILLED NO MATTER WHAT. If these same crashes that have happened in the last few months would have happened 5 years ago. They may not be here at all. So count your blessing and pray for the ones that have been unfortunate. Sprint cars will never be injury or crash proof. That is why some people watch they sit there and wait for the next crash. It is sad to say but that is reality. And the other thing people need to wake up and see that Sprint cars are not a direct line to Nascar. They help, but just because you raced sprints and midget doesnt mean Jack Roush or Joe Gibbs is going to be calling Monday morning if you win a saturday local show. Just like High School, College, and Pro Football. Only 2% of High School players get to go and play College. Only 2% of College players go Pro. And that is just they way with .25 midgets, Midgets/Sprints, Nascar. I am done venting and will wait to get beat up by responders
