YOU CAN'T BUT FRACKING SAFER BARRIERS AT DAYTONA. NOW KYLE BUSCH, MY FAVORITE DRIVER, HAS A BROKEN LEG. AND YOUR LIKE:
"OH! AFTER THE 500 WE'LL ADD SAFER BARRIERS TO THIS AREA!!!"

AND I WAS THERE, BTW. And going to the Daytona 500 tomorrow.
And guess what?
He nearly died when his wife was going to have a child in 2-3 months.
Wow.

I don't think he would've died... They've got a lot of safety equipment inside the car as well and he did get out fairly quickly but they really should've had the barriers there although there's usually not a lot of accidents around that area.
How's the atmosphere in Daytona, are you enjoying it? |

@zc
Yeah, theres the HANS device.
I was enjoying it until now.
Go Jeff Gordon or Kyle Larson tomorrow.

Reports are its most likely a XFINITY JGR driver.
JGR = Joe Gibbs Racing

I was actually sitting in front of where the accident started.
;-; I thought he died on the impact.

NASCAR is putting tires at the wall Kyle Busch hit.
Kyle Busch and fellow drivers are with him @ Halifax hospital tonight (hospital where Dale SR. died in 2001 at the same track) |

| It didn't look like he had slowed down much, I would've thought he might've put the breaks on a bit but the impact was pretty hard although didn't look deathly, remember (if you watched it) in 2008 when Michael McDowell crashed at Texas in qualifying, he was basically injury free. |

Yep, but first, that was the NSCS COT in 2008 with SAFER walls.
Secondly, before he got out the car, he said he tried to brake. Reports were that he hit at 100 MPH at initial impact.
Which is around 60 MPH less than Dale Sr. having his fatal crash in 2001. |

| NASCAR should put those safer barriers right there. I felt almost the same when Gordon crashed head on at Las Vegas a few years ago. |

@123
You mean this crash, which was at the edge of the SAFER wall?

| I don't mean to sound like an idiot, but what caused him not to be able put the breaks on a little quicker? From the looks of it he had plenty of real estate to slow up a bit but at 100 MPH that's pretty bad. |

| Kyle's replacement driver will be 2-Time & defending Truck series champion Matt Crafton. |
