Beautiful day, sunny and 86 degrees.
These pictures are from the final lap of the race and happened directly in front of us. Luckily we were 39 rows up. Seven people were hurt in the stands from car parts and shredded fence. Carl Edwards, the driver of the 99 car, got out of the car and ran across the finish line.

Geez, that IS scary. I'm glad you were high up enough that you didn't get hurt.
Yuck. Sick to my stomach just thinking about it.
More than scary!
When I saw this on the news I remembered your saying you were going to NASCAR that weekend. But... I thought you were going to a race in Atlanta.
Always get seats on the 39th row!
