Sherry Hodnett's husband, sprint car legend Greg Hodnett, died in a crash at the BAPS Motor Speedway in York County in September. During Hodnett’s career as a professional race car driver, he competed in the World of Outlaws and amassed more than 250 sprint car wins and won multiple championships. While his accomplishments on the track will long be remembered in racing circles, it was his positive attitude and the way he treated others that will forever live on in the memories of those who knew him, they say.

Yes, indeed! - by the person most affected.......by the person whom you couldn't blame for pointing the blame
Greg wasn't the only professional in that family.

That was spot on. Do what can be done to make cars and tracks safer but the only way to prevent bad injuries or worse in racing is to not race. Kind of like concussions in football.
