2000 Cracker Barrel 500: Fire on pit road

During the seventh caution period of the day, brought out by Dale Jarrett's engine failure and Todd Bodine's subsequent spinout, a fire erupted in the #60 Power Team pit stall of Ted Musgrave. Bobby Hamilton drove through the flames and made a lap around the track with the catch-can -- still attached to the rear of his car -- on fire.

@TheBbergner86

does that make any sense at all?

I am guessing you are not a true F1 fan for saying that.

F1 and Nascar are completley diffrent sports. They are both great, but both of them have their downsides. I am a fan of both..

@TheBbergner86 Technology isn't the point in NASCAR... It's about who can build the best car within a tightly controlled list of regulations... Ironically enough that's what F1 has been going towards for the past few years.

Now the real technology wars are being waged in the various Le Mans series all over the world, hybrids, diesels, KERS... All the cool stuff happens there now.

@Nascarfever You are correct, F1 does not compare to NASCAR

F1 > NASCAR, NASCAR is like a demolision derby more then a technology battle

@Nascarfever The only reason nascar is a 'bump and grind' sport is for the same reason they only race on ovals they don't even have a quarter of the talent of people in F1, I road race and I can tell you, the reaction times needed are far greater and don't even compare to the reaction times needed in oval, I have raced oval as well so I can say that.

yes it does but these days teams that do it face huge fines or race bans so its a rareity. basically you want f1 to be a "bump and grind" motor sport too? the cost of f1 cars run into the tens of millions. watching a grand prix with collisions all over the place would be heartbreaking seeing these works of art being damaged each lap. f1 is a tactical sport, nothing like nascar so dont be silly :P

[Nascarfever]

not legal but it still happens in F1 and i watch nascar because its a bump and grind motor sport not just a follow the leader like most others
