Interesting point of view. I naturally completely dissagree with your
safety comments. These cars today are much safer than they have ever been
in the past. Yesterdays accident was one of those freak of natures. I
dont care what your driving, if you have a 45+G sudden stop,
unfortunately someone will die. (Indycars have been measured at over
200G's BTW.)

Something that I find interesting is there was so much talk of a new
device at the 24 hour's of daytona event. .... I forget the name. It
basically cradles the head in a collison which I thought DE was using.
Seemes that he actually wasnt. Sad.
