@PowerTryp: I can't believe we both used the same antiquated phrase in the comments of the same post. Luckily, I spelled it right :-)

@FuturePastNow: Looks like NASCAR beat you to it.

@fuzzy plecoroom: and a third with violence

@fuzzy plecoroom: hear hear!

@Dealkiller: Yeah, but outside of Utah, the average family is not 6+ people.

@jdoubleh: To be seen at night?

Drifting for speed = awesome.

Well, Jiminy Glick that's a sexy car.

@Miscellanea can finally edit his name... brakes...: I was just scanning the comments before saying the same thing.

@racerx (Minardi): I think they can claim legit heritage on that then, huh?

@layabout returns: Absolutely agree. A kind of latter-day Dino on 'roids to my eye.

This sounds like something that would require me to leave the house.

"Why regret something today when you can regret it forever"

@Syrax: I wasn't implying that I expect it to happen, just asking if others did. I think the best thing they can do is continue to improve helmet safety and hope for less freak accidents.

@mr_dude: You thinking that closed-cockpits will be an addendum to the 2010 rules? I just don't see it happening anytime soon.

@mr_dude: He "momentarily" lost consciousness when hit by the spring, somehow hits the brakes (I think from instinct), then was unconscious again after hitting the wall.

@mr_dude: That gets promoted and a heart clicky.

That awesomely Italian 3D reconstruction doesn't jive at all with F1's official description which claims that the spring hit off the side bolster then deflected into his face. Having watched the video multiple times on my DVR, this direct hit scenario looks more plausible though.

I would simply buy Chrysler and take it to Italy.
