1996 NASCAR Brickyard 400 - Kyle Petty and Sterling Marlin crash

"Mighta sprung his neck and he 'as hollerin' about his leg a little bit but I believe he's okay."

Haha. I miss Sterling. I enjoy today's NASCAR but I wish it was more like when I was a kid because drivers weren't so wrapped up in image yet and being polished and able to talk perfectly didn't mean more than driving the race cars well. You never knew what was gonna come out of any of their mouths at any given time, there are a few like that today but I miss the character of '90s NASCAR.

4 hard impacts... He escaped with no injuries from a crash that looked deadly. One lucky man.

@PorygonFanatics He missed a couple of races with minor injuries, Todd Bodine drove in his place I believe. But you're right, any one of those hits shoulda effectively ended his season. Good Lord was on Kyle's side.

I've met Kyle a few times. Kind and generous every time. I was at this race. He was leading for awhile and the place went crazy. I watched this wreck and was heartsick..listening to the headphones saying they were checking vitals and for a pulse. Do not talk bad about this man.

Typical Kyle Petty;

[TGTAP]

@TheMagicalLemon01 Yeah because he could totally predict that the tyre was going to go down at that EXACT moment...

[TheMagicalLemon01]

@TGTAP I've met Kyle Petty, hes a dumbass.

[TGTAP]

@TheMagicalLemon01 So have I, and he's friendlier and easier to talk to than most other drivers. He probably just acted like a jackass to you because he knew you were a cunt ;)

[TheMagicalLemon01]

@TGTAP Says the pussy.

You ever met Jimmie Johnson? He may not be my favorite driver, but he was friendly.

And Kyle Petty was friendly to you because your MARRIED TO HIM.

[TGTAP]

@TheMagicalLemon01 Yes I have met him, end of last year. He seemed to overwhelmed with another win to care about any of the fans...

2. I do believe that Kyle Petty is not married to someone called Matt....Therefore your logic has failed, making your arguement flawed. =0) OH NOEZ JOO FAILED

I was wondering if someone had this one... I remember seeing Kyle's car come to rest in front of the pit wall and thinking "that is the skinniest cup car I've ever seen!" I'm glad he was generally ok.
