Default OT: Expensive day at the track...

In lieu of the great crash footage yesterday of the Realtime ITR's I figured that sharing this footage wouldn't be a bad idea.

It was incredible how no one was seriously injured especially the guy that literally had his feet knocked from under him.

Enjoy,
Matt

Everyone on the pit crews that day should have been fired on the spot. Do these drivers not wear in ears?

And with that weather it was a disaster waiting to happen. I don't care if it was a freeking hovercraft race ... that was too much rain. Should have put up the yellow or postponed.

Great vid though! Entertaining nonetheless

Does this series NOT have in car radios?
Looks like $100 per car on a radio could have saved millions in damage. .02

I would be a little upset.

It looks like what appears to be a Cobra started the whole thing?

Well, they are all okay and no serious injuries took place. Screw the cars.
