Eight fans were injured this afternoon when Carl Edwards #99 car impacted the fence near the start/finish line at the conclusion of the Aaron's 499 NASCAR race. Six were treated and released from the track care facility, while two were transported via air (due to traffic). One of the two airlifted patients suffered a possible broken jaw, while the second experienced chest pains. No details on their condition, while the remaining six were injured by flying debris. If you were watching, you won't soon forget it...

I watched it as it happened, and I must say that I was impressed that the fence held as well as it did.

Was Ricky Bobby injured? I'll donate blood right now if he needs it.

no but he was seen running in his undies down the track with Cal Naughton Jr. chasing him trying to put out the invisible fire.

Since someone already made the Ricky Bobby joke, I'll go the Carlos Mencia route.

Was he driving the Saltines car? After all, we should give the Mexicans the home depot car and have the whites drive the Saltines car.
