Tony likes the rush of both sports but have to say that NASCAR might be faster for longer stretches of the circuit, but far safer than sprint car racing. I was in the stands at race track in Santa Maria when I saw hubby catch another car's wheel and it flipped him up and over the fence and he landed upside down in the parking lot. Was a very stressful few minutes waiting to hear that he was OK.

So sad when people are seriously hurt or even killed but life is a gamble and we all make our choices what we are willing to risk and why.. A broken leg is bad news indeed but it'll heal and he'll still race in the future..-Tyr
