Fans got closer to the action than they ever bargained for! I would be in shock from a tire getting launched at me. Good for the fans to remain semi calm and flag for help.

Video would have been better if the word "Almost" wasn't in the title.

Engine burning in the stands was classic. The wheels and axles are supposed to have a tethering system but the front of the car hit with such force, it destroyed everything. This wreck was just as bad as the truck race years back when Bodine's engine went farther than his truck did.

Here's another fan video from a different angle. You can see the tire going into the stands and a 6 foot chunk of steel that hit people in the upper deck 2 sections down from where I was. Craziest thing I've ever seen at a race.
