this was no doubt a scary and of course NASCAR will reduce spped not realizing that that isn't the problem. The thing that caused Newman to get airbourne was that rear wing mainly. Soon Talladega will become a mile 1/2 race on a 2.66 mile race track. NASCAR is get too redunculous with all there changes with restrictor plates and their rulez, I say let the drivers bump draft in the corner. I didn't see anyone wreck in the spring from it. LET THE DRIVERS HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!

"Newman, an engineer, has been critical of NASCAR's inability to keep its cars from leaving earth."

i don't see the big deal, they all come back eventually.

The car came to rest on its rough? or on its roof?

"We were hoping this would not happen..."

Liars, the sport DEPENDS on these crashes...

I suppose that's 'cause you get bored driving round and around for all that time... Did you know cars can turn right too?

As much as I had to gripe about in the other story about fixing NASCAR, this is the one thing I can applaud them on... There have been some pretty nasty wrecks this year (Edwards, Logano, Newman) and everyone has walked away (or jogged in Carl's case) with no significant injuries. One of the main goals of the CoT was improving driver safety and it's definitely doing that!
