Update on John Force that had a nasty crash last year. At 76 he won’t be returning to racing.

I recall some of the stories from retired NASCAR drivers, about the cheating in the 50's and 60's. The roll cage alone provided lots of resources. One team filled the roll cage with gasoline, and used that up first. Another made the roll cage of cardboard. Yet another team won a race by using truck tires, so they never had to stop to change tires.
