I hope they show his Grand Am car crashing at Road America the other day. It was his team car, the #40 Mazda. Joe Foster was driving, was air lifted to Milwaukee, was fine later that day. A Camaro got a stuck throttle and hit him, then the Camaro went over a 12 ft fence out of the track.

A photographer got some great pics in the top row here

When Dempsey was here for the 24 hrs of Daytona he said there were people in Hollywood that didn't want him to race but he loves racing too much. He finished on the podium that weekend, and it was awesome. Pretty lucky that Joe was ok or he'd really be hearing it now.

talked about the Daytona 24, he just got back from LeMans, some more race talk and then showed a clip from Transformers 3 with some sweet cars in it. I knew with those two there would be race chatter.
