Its sad to hear when a race car driver passes away during a race, but when you see it live on t.v it becomes hard to take in. I loved they way they did the 5 lap in his memory, other than that its a sad day for the indy racing community. My prayers are with his loved ones. GOD SPEED Dan.

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "Holy $hit, what a ride!"

The history of racing is usually a tragedy is followed by a safety improvement.
