NASCAR Busch Series at Dover 1997 (third big crash)

Hermie Sadler (#1) has a horrible crash on the frontstretch after he clobbers the gate on the inside wall.
The gate tears apart the left front and shears parts like the oil filter and left-front tire of off Sadler's car.
The race would get red-flagged to repair the gate and clean up the debris.
He is uninjured and speaks about the crash

I get so pissed that they never show replays from the IN car camera. All they use is the roof camera. I love seeing the driver fight for control, seeing him get bounced around, to me thats the most dramatic shot. Hell with the roof camera. I was so overjoyed when they got banned back in the late 90s.

@solaire66 they never got banned, just required to make them smaller as to not become an aerodynamic advantage/disadvantage to the particular car/truck they were on

his normal scheme was rather bland, this was a special promotional scheme for DeWalt, not sure what it was for tho
