dat car backflipped so fast i couldnt even count da backflips

He caught so much air because he hit a part of Brack's car which was supossedly the Rear wing on the track, common sense will tell you that it caused the front end of Mario's car to catch air and launch it into the air at 210 mph. They said that Andretti;s car hit the top of the fence with potential of going over it. And no he is not dead..

holy shit did Mario get some height

[AyrtonHamilton2785]

yes, perhaps too much emphasis on Aero is having a negative effect in F1

I think he died long ago and is the only living race-car zombie. Can't kill 'em if he is already dead. Looks good though!

[Will Callan]

How is he still alive after all of his crashes???

[PorygonFanatics]

Sprint Cars and Midgets are definitely more dangerous, Both weigh less than IndyCars roughly around 1,000 to 1,200 pounds and possess 300 to 700 horsepower.

Actually, that model of IndyCar was specifically designed for ovals. They had some problems trying to race them on road courses.

wow i musta watched this video a hundred times....did he survive that?

[johnnystir]

He broke his ankles in 1992. If you're talking about this crash...no injuries.

I'll tell you where it came from FROM FACTS! Going 160 mph on a 5/8 mile paved oval in a midget car w/30 other cars is FAR more dangerous than going 200 mph on a 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 mile oval in an indycar. There have been FAR more flips, more cars going out of the park, more cars going through the fence and more drivers killed in Midget car racing than in Indycar racing in the last 10 years. your statement is disproportionate. You need to get your perceptions (and facts) straight!
