The police said they would arrest you if you ran out there. The race organizers insist you let emergency personnel handle all incidents...

I hope the driver went out and bought a lottery ticket that day! Seriously, glad to hear no one was seriously hurt.

I don't think they had time to react. Especially with the car going that fast and events unfolding so quickly.

They were told not to run those tires for this event and those wheels were widened knockoffs. Bad luck right there.
