I am a huge Motorsports Fan. If it has wheels and an engine and it races, I watch it.

This years Indianapolis 500 winner was killed today in Las Vegas. It was the most frieghtening wreck I've seen.
I wish I had missed it.......


Indianapolis 500 winner Dan Wheldon died Sunday in a fiery 15-car wreck at Las Vegas Motor Speedway when his car flew over another on Lap 13 and smashed into the wall just outside turn 2.
Wheldon was 33. Drivers were told of Wheldon's death in a meeting about two hours after the fiery, smoky crash that many drivers said was the worst they had ever seen.
He won the Indianapolis 500 twice, including this year.
