There is no excuse for this accident, and Deborah Renshaw shoud prey for forgiveness every day that she has left on earth, because her gross negligence cost a man his life. She should never be allowed to drive a vehicle again. How is it that 3 drivers were able to miss Martin immediately, yet she plowed right into him? She deserves jail time for this.

@snappy452 did you read what zzzbbbccc wrote: "A spotter is the person who sits at the top of grandstand and sends a transmition to a driver telling him or her where the other cars are in relation to the driver. Before this crash, spotters were not used during practice. A spotter would have told Deborah Renshaw that Eric Martin's car was stopped at the top of the track. Since she did not know this information, she drove her lap as normal" ---> any questions?

I do have one complaint about the video. You do not leave the text up for long enough. I find myself pausing the clips sometimes and going back a second or two just so that I can read it. But overall, I like you videos. 5/5

[goodwilltubing]

Sorry, but I wanted to have the whole text on the slowed down second angle, and if I had slowed it more down the whole video would have been messed up.

Sorry, but I do my very best for my vids.

GWT why dont you put Tom Pryce's accident?

[goodwilltubing]

I'm thinking about it.

I just need to put the material together.

Maybe today or tomorrow.

It's like at id Software:

"(it's done) When it's done"

[zzzbbbccc]

It's still a good video

R.I.P. E.M. so sad this shit bothers me so bad, best drivers in the world with open track 3 avoided but Deb can't she shudda stayed in the kitchen

[jmtomasu]

i hope she lives with regret. I'm not kidding, not am i being funny...but women cannot drive. Most avoidable wreck I've ever seen. Almost looked on purpose.

ARCA is a lower level series meant to weed out incompetent drivers before they reach major league level. Unfortunately, in this case, it took a fatal accident to weed one out. In racing, if you have enough money, you can buy your way into the game whether or not you have the ability to compete. You can't do this in other sports. And yet racing is a sport where people get killed ARCA, though a lower level, is just as fast as NASCAR & more dangerous because of the lower talent level of the drivers

@snappy452 dude she didnt mean to do it. there were no spotters telling them what was going on and she was too far back to see him crashing.

[kingpins9]

@goodwilltubing You missed the point. The track caution lights were on. She did not obey them when she was on the BACKSTRETCH. This cannot be blamed on lack of a spotter. She made half a lap before striking and killing Eric.

There is a reason she no longer races. She is incompetent behind the wheel.

[xXxmtdoomxXx]

the wreck that very well could have been avoided. ARCA should have paid dearly for allowing this. No spotters? Are they fucking crazy? Racing is dangerous as hell and theres no way drivers can do it by themselves, they need a little guidance, even in practice. I wasnt there and I dont know what Deborah was seeing, but I don't see how she needed a spotter to avoid him, but what do i know? Its mainly ARCAs fault for not having the proper rules in place to prevent a tragedy like this.

Blackopsflare: but a stationary car is harder to see than a moving car. From her periferal view it was difficult to see until it was too late.
