Safer barrier was smoked black, it wasn't cooked. |

The catch fence is probably also weakened or melted from the heat too. |

Although I would love to see a fellow OHIO'an win, this would be the worst anti-climatic finish in history. Here's keeping the fingers crossed for a restart!!! |

It's unlikely that fire got hot enough to damage steel, I'll say it again, avgas ignites at 50°C which is significantly lower than regular fuel. |

The SAFER barrier can be replaced in sections, that's of no concern. If the tracks OK once they clean it off, we'll go back racing. |

So yeah, I'm an expert in what temp avgas ignites and burns at, working with it for 15 years will give you a little insight. I'm just trying to pass that insight along because most people are not aware of the ignition point of avgas, sorry if you have a problem with that. |

How many stupidity comes from people that say they know all about racing is just  As if any driver could have done anything in a situation like this. |
