    Those crash videos are insane. I heard from Jeremy last night, glad to hear he and Yuri are okay and managed to walk away from that crash. Thank god for modern safety equipment, although I’ll bet Yuri will have arm restraints on next time!

    Pretty sure that's NOT how he wanted to get "known"...

    But glad he's around to tell us his story.

    Without being there, I don't think I could pucker enough.
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    Glad to hear all is well (as can be). Hopefully, someone can find a surviving gopro and return it to him. Could possibly be best vid ever.

    Inane. It is a product of good car construction and alot of luck that their injuries weren't more serious (or worse).
