    Indy Driver killed in Crash

    Dan Wheldon this years Indy 500 winner was killed in a crash today at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Maybe the worst crash I have ever seen.

    Yes I saw it too. Definately the worst crash I have seen. 32 open wheel cars cars at 200 mph on a 1.5 mile oval. No room for mistakes. The two cars that touched and set off the chain reaction barely touched, but it was enough. Very sad indeed.

    Next year's Indy car has more safety things going on, as well as rear wheel guards in attempt to prevent cars from going over the top. Ironically Dan was the test driver for that car.
