As some of you can tell by my name, I'm a race fan. Go MK. But I love all forms of racing and was watching the Indy Car race at vegas and can't believe we lost another driver. I know most people on here are not race fans for one reason or another, but I just want to say R.I.P Dan. Unreal.

 

I am also a fan, sad news to read. R.I.P Dan Wheldon

 

Very sad, last race of the year too.

R.I.P Dan Wheldon

 

RIP Mr. Wheldon.
Indy needs to get off the oval, that's why drivers keep getting killed.

 

+1, they are too fast, with basically no protection. They need to slow them down at least ,and the racing will be just as good, like NASCAR has done.

 

NASCAR has no problems running on ovals because the cars are tanks compared to the F1-style car.
When the NASCAR boys hit the wall at 200 they have a full cage, the IRL folks don't. I think that is yet another reason why F1 only runs road courses.
