I saw them connect in the air and by the time I got the camera in action they were already going for a ride. They had a few seconds of flight time knowing things were ugly.

I said a prayer and had to wait until finally I saw the rider start moving....very happy at that point!

Wow that was pretty ugly. Glad nobody was seriously hurt. :)

Impressive shots for such fast action Pappy, i'm sure it all happened in the blink of an eye.

wow, I guess that explains why #53 didn't show up to the line for 450a! Good thing he is alright! This was in Production A right?

Yeah I saw him in Hetrick's pit and you could see where one of the tires run across his back/ribs.

Oh and did anybody see that flagger get hit? I thought for sure his leg snapped and then he got up and kept flagging.
