If you'll notice, Kyle hit one of the few places in the fence where there's a cross brace and a gate with extra bracing there as well. Without out the extra bracing who knows what the outcome would have been.. Any thoughts?

They said it was the cross over gate.
We need more sprint car racing at our home track.

Removing rear view mirrors from these cars would make a huge difference, IMO.

I think that if the car hadn't been stopped abruptly by the extra bracing at the gate, the results would have been closer to what happened at this crash that took place very close to the one today.

And some down force. Then we will find out who the drivers are.

take the downforce away then you will find out the drivers and not who can outspend someone.

I'm glad all the fans will be ok. After all that Kyle sits 9th in points, 10 points out of first going into next weeks race in Phoenix.

What did AZ's, also out of USAC, Alex Bowman who finished 3rd end up being in points? Travis had a good run too.

This is Kyles quote from the NASCAR website:

“I’m fine. Sprint cars wreck a lot harder,” said Larson, who came up in USAC and the World of Outlaws. “Or, they feel they wreck a lot harder. But yeah, it was definitely a big hit. Hopefully, I don’t have another one like that in stock cars.”


Cheers!

I'm sure NASCAR will figure it out and improve it. There is always something to be learned. Hopefully everyone survives this and in the long run it makes racing safer too.
