Nascar Racing Online

You can call us all "casualty vampires" if you like, to borrow a line from one of our live chats, but there’s a reason why "Wreck of the Week" is the most popular category on The Marbles. We want to see wrecks, and no disrespect to NASCAR, but Indy packs a serious punch when it comes to car carnage. Witness this past week’s wreck where Vitor Meira tangled with Raphael Matos late in the Indy 500 (fast-forward to about the 7:20 mark):

Sadly, Meira broke two vertebrae and is out until at least October. But considering how bad Indy wrecks have been in the past, with death a common occurrence, we can be thankful that this one didn’t end worse.

And since that video is eight minutes long — what, nobody’s got an editing truck in Indy? — feel free to watch it and pontificate on the differences between NASCAR and Indy, or Danica and Junior, or whatever. Have at it!
