| This has me sick to my stomach. RIP Wheldon. I am not a huge IRL fan, but he was a great racer, and it's sad to see anyone lose their life.

| This was almost inevitable, with this type of racing. I predict actions to slow the cars down. A great champion has paid the ultimate price for his passion. My prayers go out to his widow, a close friend of a VN member I have got to know. |

| | doo doo doo | Just a horrific accident - I counted at least 5 cars airborne. The in car from Will Power shows how lucky he was not to have his head crushed by his own front tire.
RIP Wheldon - one of my favs. He was a maestro at Indy and by all accounts a helluva fun guy to hang out with.
