Don't know for sure but I think the #90 blew a right rear and went airborn. The splitter and the whole nose is bent upwards like the front end drug across the ground while the ass end was up in the air. Just a prediction though. No freakin' replays.

These days surely there'd be enough people in the grandstands for someone to catch it?

Oh wait, Grand Am....yeah.

Still might be worth scouring youtube.

Seems like every time the Grand Ams hit Daytona there's some crazy air the cameras miss, like the entire backflip of a few years ago they just about caught the last millesecond of after it had already landed.

Backflip? Of what? Any photos or news stories on it?

It didn't get any air ( the #90 ) I was standing there when it happened it just blew the rear tire and hit the wall almost head on, and then coasted into the tri-oval. It was a hard hit but nothing spectacular. When he came off the wall the air just lifted the nose up a little.

Errr, baring in mind it is a hazy memory I can't give you too much information.

Pretty sure it was in the 24 hours though...maybe 2004 or 2005. You didn't see ANY of the air just a pile of junk rolling down out of the tri oval
