NASCAR drivers safer at the tail than away from it? Hear.

Brad Keselowski is an exception. He was injured this week in a run in testing at Road Atlanta when his brakes failed and he sailed into a definitive obstacle at 100 mph. He fractured his left side ankle but said he plans to spout the unalloyed 500 miles today at Pocono Raceway without needing a locum driver. Even with his injuries, Keselowski acknowledges how justified racing in the Cup series has been.

"It's been a large occasion since we've seen a founder in Cup where a driver has been at face value hurt," Keselowski said. "Let's conk on wood." Clint Bowyer isn't surprised that Keselowski will tear today. "It seems identical to in this sport, you have to be able to get the show on the road on and unsentimental it out," Bowyer said.

"If you don't … big-timer else might get in that car. That is presumably the hardest obsession and the biggest dismay is luminary else getting in your crate and doing better than you. A driver will get in that wheels no matter what the injury and tough it out all things considered to just not have to go through that and see a what-if scenario operate out." Improved safety -- along with destiny -- has kept Cup drivers safer than those who raced in earlier generations. Thirty-one drivers have competed in every Cup stock this season, analogous the billion of drivers who ran in every Cup rivalry in each of the lifetime two seasons.

For many drivers, they'll pick up to do what they have in between races. For Tony Stewart, he'll still fly in other series in spite of the risks. "The ladies and gentlemen that mean don't drive racecars don't separate what it's like," Stewart said. "To me you only get one turn at life. You exigency to live it the behaviour pattern you want to live it.

Not worrying about what can happen, stew about what you're making happen." Pastrana said he lives only in the moment, but now he'll have much more while to intend his career. Dr. Tom Dennis performed surgery on Pastrana's foot and ankle Wednesday in Annapolis, Md.

Pastrana's rescue includes being immobilized in friction for one month and not putting any incline on his morality length for another month after that. Pastrana said in a communication that he talked about meet in a join of races at the end of the occasion before deciding to postpone his debut until next year. "This will be a mirth ride … eventually," Pastrana said.
