OOps also, COT+Car Of Poison
CO in the COT Car Sick
Posted Jun 7th 2007
It doesn’t seem that the problem of carbon monoxide (CO) exposure in the car of tomorrow gotten any better since the problem was exposed after the car’s debut in Bristol.
On Monday, David Stremme was forced to relinquish the wheel of his #40 Coors Light Dodge two thirds into the race because he was ill, complaining of headaches.
Stremme claimed to be suffering from a sore throat and flu-like symptoms since Friday, but upon evaluation in the infield care center his blood showed elevated levels of carbon monoxide.
What’s it gonna take to get safety-conscious NASCAR’s attention focused on this issue?

We watched “Prelude to a Dream” and really enjoyed it. Flipper won, but the race to the flag between him, Shrub, and Flash, was exciting!
I also have new-found respect for Flash. He got into the car for the first time, and raced it like a pro. First-timers eSad and JPM were laughable.
I still hate Flash, but he really proved to me he is a supremely great race-driver.
