    Crazy incident. Sucks that they went for the cars before the drivers with the bottles though.

    The drivers got out under their own power (under 30 sec w/ firesuit), they need to get foam on the ethanol that's pouring all over the track first. If not, well, I think you can imagine what would happen. A lot of first responders do not have all of the necessary gear to get close to the driver when the fire is in full force. The safety crew did a very good job here IMO.

    I LOVE V8 Supercars! I am biased though. Crazy race action. Wish we could watch unedited V8 Supercars in the US, and I would really love to see some V8 Ute Supercars! Check Youtube, some awesome racing.
    Glad everyone was OK from the crash.
