Ow thats gotta hurt. It happens I guess, glad no one's really hurt

 

Thats F***** priceless!!! Whats even funnier than the guy getting hit is the reaction of Mario Andretti, He's just like looking at the dude with his hands in his pockets going "Well........Would you look at that s***?"

 

Ouch.

 

HAHAH i didn't even notice Mario standing there LOL

 

I thought they all had to have helmets goin over the wall or is that just F1 and Nascar??????

 

'Tis a wee scratch . . .

I thought the same thing Dave, but apparently the IRL does not require helmets during practice from what I have read, but I can not confirm. I know they do have a helmet rule during racing.

 

I wonder what Firestone tastes like?

 

"Women drivers, no survivors."

 

Yeah, that guy has enough experience to know better, those cars are still going around 50 right before they hit the box with crewmen always around. It's not like she probably expected the guy to actually step out into her way. He'll get the embarrassment of seeing that clip for a while.

 

Thats is really strange with all the safety concerns, I know at PIR any time the track is"hot" anyone goin over has to have a helmet or they freak out!!
