[Bad Dad 54]

I was at the races last night crewing for my friend (we won) & I was standing at the fence. I had talked to this fellow earlier & he was beside me. I noticed a young man standing there w/ fire suit 1/2 way down w/ a t-shirt on GRRRRRRRRR. I asked if that was his son, yes it was, told him he's possibly gonna get hurt & explained how. He tapped the young man on the shoulder told him, You need to listen to this man. Told him I didn't wanna scare him then explained about getting burned by a soaked t-shirt. It not the fire but the heat, if it gets hot enough that water will boil & you're gonna get burned. You'll end up w/ some nasty scars on your body & it's not fun, cause nurses take a stiff brush & scrub dead skin off after soaking a while. And it's painfull
He had a pretty nice lookin suit on, one of the better ones I've seen, when I was finally done he seemed to understand. B4 I walked back Dad grabbed my arm, Thank you, I will get him some b4 he races again.
Man I hope so, saw a video recently of a driver stopping in 3rd turn jumping the railing & on fire, having proper equipment saved him
