I saw the same thing during my first race at the Rock. I don't know which
driver it was or if he hit the wall first (close though). I'll have to check
the replay I saved. This guy only got up to 385mph in reverse. I was amazed
at how quick the spotter picked it up. He was yelling 'go low' and all I saw
was a dark object jet across the screen. I'm going to have to do some
testing with the reverse gear, maybe there's something there<BG>
