That part of the track is under the landing approach of Brackett Field. Just be glad it wasn't Thursday a week early. Imagine the headline "Sportsman Qualifying Cancelled due to Plane Crash".

Really Greg? You're such a buzz kill with that one.
Thousands of landings for decades over the same flight path and the stands are no longer there BTW. Yeah, I'm glad he survived as well. Huh.
Now------------, your history memory should note that the FAA actuality forced the scoreboards to be lowered some years ago as well. OMG, they knew this would happen ????
