Anyone see this? Terrible tragedy. I wonder how it will affect the sport. Wasn't this one of the areas they wanted to close.

Re: Crash in Lucerne
that is horrible. It blows my mind that people would feel safe that close to the 1 ton projectiles. I feel sorry for all those involved especially the driver and survivors they will all be haunted by that moment for life.

Re: Crash in Lucerne
Think about it. It dont happen alot , but when it does , its sad. It wood be exciting as hell to have been that close. I remember winston Cup at watkins GLEN AND THE eSSES UPHILL. i COULD ALMOST HAND THE DRIVER A CUP OF WATER,TAKING PICTURES. Did I think I was in danger ? No I justified it by saying I was on the inside of the turn ! Now hear this ! Not one member in our club wears a helmet! Or their children. But we dont go that fast, Im just learning,I have a spotter. Its what makes it EXCITING ! Ask my two boys, Ive talked about wearing helmets for 4 or 5 years now. They whinned and I procrastinated ! But Im havin fun till I put my eye out ! FjR68

I keep a bike helmet in my rig when running with my other club. I think Brian does too.Frank wrote: Not one member in our club wears a helmet!
