re: #411 b_sharp

Open wheel is more dangerous than NASCAR so to keep speeds down they change the car but they tend to make some good decisions and some really bad ones. The year Greg died, they lowered the downforce. That directly led to his loss of control and his death when his car left the ground.

NASCAR has been making a lot of car changes since the flip video I linked, in order to prevent cars from flipping over at the superspeedways. There was another, more destructive accident where the car lifted off and slammed back into the pavement on its roof. I’ll see if I can find it.
