This happened on the last corner of the last lap of the Nationwide Series 300 race last Saturday, looking at the second video shows that the front end of the No 32 car including the engine pierced the catch-fencing and ended up at the bottom of the Grandstand.

17 people were injured but luckily nobody was killed, it turns out that the front end of Kyle Larsons Chevrolet hit the only door in that entire length of fence, piercing through and then ripping off the entire front end leaving the block at the base of the grandstand
It's the time that we kill that keeps us alive...

You'd've thought they'd have mastered the left turn by now, wouldn't you ?



Good to hear no-one was killed . . . makes you feel less guilty about finding it awesome !

If you haven't seen it yet, the Korean graphic recreation is a piece of art!

Sadly it's not the first time that's happened, although that is by far the worst in recent history. There was a really nasty pickup truck crash on a similar scale.
