Early days of car racing... That was more a suicide mission then weekend race... We have come a long way... and learn it the hard way!

In racing we call that "The Big One"

You know it can happen anytime, but hope it never does.

RIP Dan Wheldon...

It's a very sad day... One of the best out there... just didn't make it. Hitting the catch fence head first is not a good thing! My tough and prayer for all the friends and family.

;(

I feel so sad today. Racing has its high and low. For some racing is a job, for others its entertainment. Either way it always suck when someone die doing what they do best. Enjoy life while you are here with family, friends and do all the things you want to do.

At the end of the day, when that little white dot appear on your screen (remember those old tube TV when turn off...) It won't matter what you own, drive or the type of work you did. People will remember you for who you really are.

Be good, be strong, tell your love ones how much you really care about them and most of all... ride safe!

Martin.
