There were two serious wrecks today. 10 laps in today's race (Saturday) Dario Franchittis tire exploded causing him to practically get T-bone. The car that hit him was traveling around 180 mph plus when he plowed just above half way of the car. He has a broken ankle and suffered minor contusions. In other words, he's bruised all to hell.

David Stremme will replace him in the cup race.

Click here (http://www.nascar.com/2008/news/headlines/cup/04/26/dstremme.dfranchitti.replacement/index.html) and then click watch video to see it. And it doesn't do it very much justice as I saw on TV.

After watching the video, look to your right and click on Kevin LePage. He made a serious mistake by not understanding the rules and not paying attention to the spotter.
