If anyone was watching the race, then you know what just happened around 8:00. They were on a caution flag, with the truck out that dry the track, when one of the NASCAR drivers lost control and slammed into one of the dryer trucks. Both driver got out and are fine.
The dryer truck pulls a trailer with an old helicopter engine, to dry the track. It uses jet fuel, that when the NASCAR driver slammed into him, it began spilling out. Then the jet fuel lit on fire. Firefighters fought it for a good ten minutes, before putting it out. You can see where the fire melted a hole in the truck.
Anyway, it is interesting to watch. Check out ESPN or the local news. I am sure they will have it.
