joekarter Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Today the sport I grew up with and have watched all my life lost one of it's best. RIP Dan. My condolences to his family Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ham2 Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Yes, sad news ..I can't help thinking it's an un-neccessary waste... there shouldn't be open wheel racers on oval tracks, it's way too risky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfoot Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Dan is indeed a sad loss. I agree about the ovals but only these silly 1.5 mile things. 225 mph three a breast in open wheeled cars on track that size really is asking for trouble and putting $5M on a win is enough to make people take unusual risks. Unfortunately having recently watched Senna the movie it sometimes takes an event like this for overdue change to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
