DMG is a joke of an organization. After the gross safety issues that took place when they took over AMA superbike, you would think they would learn.

Juan Pablo Montoya just rear-ended a fuel truck that was on the track during the Daytona 600. Both he and the driver of the truck are lucky to be alive. Wow, just wow.

Oh and that was a Jet-Dryer not a fuel truck.

Looking at the Replay's on Youtube, it would appear that something in his car just broke.

I think it's a bit of a Freak Accident myself, you can hear him talking to his crew saying that something in the car has broken.
Maybe his tires spun on the white line.

It appears his rear locked up as you can see some smoke prior to the spin. Also....it is a yellow line, not a white one  [laugh]

Yes. I think everyone here knows this. But thank you for clearing that up for those who don't.  [roll]

for the people that don't, your original post is misleading...

for clarification: dmg (daytona motorsports group), isc (international speedway corporation), and nascar are all separate companies.

dmg (currently doing business as ama pro racing, former owners of grand-am) has nothing to do with the track (owned by isc) or nascar.
