Here is the video from the first lap of Sunday's race where the second car (West) rear-ends the car in front (Siegal) which turns him into traffic (Weiderholt) on the left thereby creating a melee at the entrance to Turn 3 (which is a hard left into the infield).

I slowed and then followed a couple of other cars through the middle of the mess. After starting 10th, I came thru in 4th!

Unfortunately, I had a problem where I couldn't turn off traction control and so TC would engage in every corner and substantially slow me so I dropped back a few more places before pulling off early after putting my left rear tire off the track at the exit of Turn 4 into a huge pot hole and possibly damaging my suspension.

As always, best viewed full screen in 1080p with sound!
