Budmakesmewiser should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Something interesting............

when Dale Sr passed on a while back,my uncle and i started to talk about car safety for the drivers in racing,he started to tell me about something he had saw on i believe it was Date Line,one of their specials,he said that some company,was testing a new seat.On the show a man had got in a regular street car set up with this seat system in it,with "no" seat belt on and took the car up to 60mph head on into a solid cement wall,and the guy just hopped out unscratched,my uncle said that the seat they were using flips backwards,your head back and your legs up,this only really works for front impacts,and it would be hard for the drivers to feel their cars because the seats would have to be some what flexible.
