    Just seen photo's on 'Google', its Amazing more haven't been Killied. Looks Quite an innocuous accident, its just that Colin Edwards could'nt avoid him. Edwards dislocated his Shoulder.

    He lost the front end and would normally have slid away from the racing line, but because he got his knee down and tried to keep it up the front tyre dug in and gripped again. Very sad. He was a real character.  :-(
