        i don't know if you can read it, but it says:
        "The Holder of this ticket expressly assumes all risk incident to the event,........(and so on)"

          Those sorts of "assumption of the risk" notices are standard on sporting event tickets (and auto racing competitor releases). The big question is how effective they are under Florida law. The law in some states is:

          Generally speaking, the possessor of land is liable to a visitor only if he knows of or should have known of a dangerous condition and realizes that it involves unreasonable risk and has no reason to believe that the plaintiff will discover the condition and fails to warn the visitor so that the latter may avoid the harm.
          Spectators at sporting events being hit by debris of competition or even the competitors themselves have been considered an open and obvious hazard in some lawsuits.

            Stock Corolla-looking cars with fake wings, aluminum wheels, fog lamps, and sunroofs?

            The disco-dancing fans (attendance is up in the animated NASCAR)?

            Mullet-bubba swilling an imported brew from a bottle, getting hit by a tire from the front, and then spurting blood like a volcano? (must have high blood pressure)

            The "Good Sam" fan who spikes a magically appearing t-shirt into Mullet-bubba's geyser.

            The "lawyer" shaking coins out of the upside-down dude (who apparently weighs about two pounds)

            The ticket disclaimer "Get yourself hurt or killed: Not our fault"

            The ghost fans who encircle the stock Toyota that crushed 'em to death.

            Insane? or Insanely brilliant?

              Oops, I got it wrong . .. "Good Sam" stuffs his "wife beater" t-shirt into the blood geyser (after stripping it off in a cloud of smoke).

              And you've got to love the 1930s ticket shack that looks like it belongs at Mo-Kan instead of Daytona . . . .

              And the shadow that the flying car makes over the soon-to-be-smashed fans.

              This is primo gallows humor . . . .

                There is plenty of legal precidence where the judge pitches out the legal disclaimer on the back of sporting event tickets. I am sure the Nascar legal team will be pushing the fine print anyways.
