Kenny Irwin and Adam Petty both bought the farm exiting turn 3 at Loudon, Liz... I'm not sure about a 3rd driver. But yeah, one fatality, I can pass it off... But it's a track with a pretty short history, and when two promising young drivers die in the same corner, BOTH supposedly from stuck throttles, BOTH apparently from head trauma... Something is _seriously_ wrong.
I'd argue that the attempts to conquer the Vegas market so far have just been too small, Liz. A night race on a fantastic street course including the strip (I'm gonna post a layout tommorrow, a Suzuka-style over-under scheme!), with a bunch of casinos instead of just Caesar's involved in promotion, they could create an event that'd rival Monaco in glamour and prestige.
