Brad Yost, the only way you can ensure that no spectators get injured at Talladega/Daytona is to eliminate the races there altogether. Cars can fly into the fence anything over 140-150. What happened yesterday could happen at Charlotte or Atlanta just as easy. I don't think the owners are about to bulldoze Dayt/Tala to drastically reduce the speed that much. And how much more boring would the races become if you were to slow the cars down that much on 2.5 mile. It's a double edge sword.
The fans must understand that there is an inherent risk when they attend such a spectical. Just like the air races at Reno.


I predict Danica will qualify outside the top 20 next week at Phoenix.
