AH! I saw the accident and got sick of the race! I turned the TV off and went to bed. I did see the earlier footage of the track concrete being lifted up with the sticky tires.. I don't usually agree with Greg Andersons opinion but right after the Gaines accident, Anderson was politicin' to stop the race before they started the next pair down the track. NHRA blew him off! I'll bet they wish they could revisit that moment.
