Yep, that was a wild wreck! There have been a number of impacts over the last 5-6 years or so in NASCAR that could have been fatal or resulted in serious injury had it not been for safety innovations.

The SAFER barriers are incredible. I've read that they can absorb anywhere from 30-50% of the impact vs. hitting the old bare concrete walls.
