That much I do understand. Its not really too hard to figure out that human
body + 180 MPH + solid wall = real bad situation.
What I was spewing about was the alligatons that the modifications that NASCAR
said had to be done to the cars - may have contributed to and / or caused the
wrecks. And that those modifications were done as a way to boost the
ratings. I could be right - I could be wrong. There were some posts about
this earlier - and somone said the modifications would have made the cars
handle better. That may be so... but I can tell you one thing. The way the
cars were so close to eachother... thats not safer than what they had before.
