A Fatal Crash at Yello Belly....

Many people have died there, including spectators! Stupid people doing stupid things. At least they aren't out on the streets.

That tire wall on the high end would sure be a comfort for me at 140 mph with brakes I haven't checked in two years. I never like to race wearing a helmet when I have my race belts on but I do love to race in flip flops after a few cocktails. Who owns this death trap?

What is with all the people on the starting line at these outlaw tracks and heads up races? If something breaks on a car during the burnout or leaving the line. There is likely to be people hurt. Don't they understand this?

I found this crash video from 2006. Note the photographer standing downtrack between the racing surface and the wall on the left side.
