Flyin Ryan should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
"ABC’s live telecast of the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway on Saturday, May 5, drew the network’s third-largest audience ever for a Nationwide Series race."

One thing this incident does reinforce for me is that belted-together tire barriers seem like a much better solution for crashes at steep impact angles.
When CART used to race at the trapezoid oval in Brazil in the '90s, they had belted-together tire barriers on the outside. For some reason I think there was a weird crash that made them remove them.
