If you feel the need to see it, it is on YouTube.

It’s pretty stunning to say the least. It’s a very different experience from watching the Earnhardt crash, which I still can’t watch, and haven’t been able to watch since the day it happened.

All I can say is that the car simply exploded. It stayed in a straight line before, during and after the explosion. Just a huge fireball.

My TV listing shows this event replaying on ESPN 2 at 11:30 Eastern.

It was claimed that debris from the car's body became wrapped up in the chute so it couldn't deploy as needed.

Someone on the ESPN page this said that he met Kalitta there years ago and this was his favorite track.
