            I watched that this mourning.
            They need to fix that jump ramp coming out of the kittie litter next to the paved section before the tires.
            That thing got some big air and came about as close as you could without going out of the park!

            I hadn't heard of a stuck throttle,but in a way that makes a little more sense than he was just trying to stuff the Ferari.....
            His entry line does look like he wasn't trying to bend it in....

                    Remember when Mercedes Benz had two cars do back flips on the Mulsanne Straight?

                      Hell yeah I do. They flew off into the damned trees! I think the second Audi wreck happened on the Mulsanne Straight. It looked like the driver did a poor job of passing. The second wreck seemed like human error, the first seemed like the car experienced some sort of failure.

                          I saw this on ESPN sports center earlier. They said there were no injuries, even among those who got showered with wreckage. That is a miracle in and of itself.

                              I found a video from the crash:
