NASCAR: The 10 Worst Pit Road Accidents

No. 5 – Car Meets Water

Okay, so technically this didn’t happen on pit road but more like right next to the entrance of pit road. Regardless, it was still a sight to see and it was close enough to happening on pit road to make this list.

There is just something about a racecar cascading into water containers and making them explode that is hard to turn away from.

It’s fortunate that those barrels were in place and it might even be more fortunate that it was barrels and not tires like NASCAR had used on that part of the track previously. That portion of the track is a hard spot to wreck in and a dangerous one but the barrels did their job. Everyone walked away after the wreck and the track was just a little wetter than it should have been.
