RIP Dan Wheldon

Yesterday, we lost a great champion in the Indycar Series, victim of one of the most horrible crash ever seen. Just a few months ago, he was wining the 500 miles of Indianapolis..
Rest in Peace Dan Wheldon, and all my concondolences go to his family.

I've got no interest in auto racing of any kind, but I saw on ESPN's website that Jimmie Johnson said they needed to stop racing open-wheel cars on ovals because they just go too fast to be safe. Said they should only race road courses. I think their average speed on ovals is like 50 mph more than the top speeds stock cars hit on ovals.
