Talking about the safety of walls? Dirt tracks with no walls are much safer (as long as the spectator seating is placed appropriately). I don't care what anyone says. Walls stop kinetic energy...quickly. A lack of a wall allows the cars stopping and rolling time. Tears up a lot less equipment too.
So according to the physics professor and author, if its got a wing on it then its MORE unstable? Someone ought to invite her out to the burg tomorrow for a refresher in reality...
I don't follow any other sports. But when I see "the media" reporting on racing, I realize they are probably just as clueless and incorrect about everything else they talk about.

How about they take a 2 seater ride non wing style with Hewitt.Then take one with a wing!
ESPN ran an AP article that had the same type of crap in it. I was so mad I created a profile so I could comment & steer people right. In vain most likely but hey, I was mad.
What scares me about the PC police is I just saw a headline where a school teacher was let go because she had an abusive ex boyfriend. Apparently he's been deemed a threat to the student body. But then again, that was a press headline so who knows how true...
