These videos are from the last lap of the race Sunday. If you look at the black #39 car it shows his car no. and speed. So you can have an idea of just how fast they were running. The track is Talladega Superspeedway. It's 2.66 miles around. The cars are required to put restrictor plates under the carburetor. And they still are going over 200mph. There was 7 spectators injured from flying debris... none serious. The worst was a lady with a possible broken jaw. The rest were cuts and bruises. Here are the vids. www.youtube.com/watch?v=shO8JXh1hqIwww.youtube.com/watch?v=6nlytg1bYI0&NR=1

yes already saw this this week , it was on the high lights on the news feeds on top of our website..
As they had a discussion to bring down the top speed in Nascar. to problem is the cars go airborne at about 195 mph.. and when they drive with to cars like they did here they easily go 190mph .. So if they spin . they go up like a feather in the wind.. Very dangerous situations indeed..
