Doak said two cars were fighting for position, and passed a slower car when they made contact with each other. Driver John Metzger, 55, of Cross Lanes, W.Va., lost control of his Van Dieman RF98 racecar and crashed into a tire-protected guard rail.

Pendejo - There is no such thing as a racing budget and if you can't afford to set it on fire and watch it burn while drinking a beer then don't race it.
