Pit Crew Member Gets Tail Whipped By An Indy Car And Goes Flying
SEE YA! Turns out the guy came away with pretty minor injuries which seems almost impossible. You’ve got a giant Indy Car tail whipping into a guy going who knows how fast. It hits him, causes him to flip about 65 times in the air and he walks away with a scratch. Lucky bastard. I have a question: How does one become the member of a pit crew? What does that career trajectory look like? It has to be weird as hell. You have to imagine not too many kids in elementary school are saying, “One day, I wanna be a pit crew member.” It just can’t be a popular choice. Lawyer, doctor, blogger, pit crew member. In my head it’s a small town mechanic who keeps saying to himself, “I’m great at fixing cars but I want to do it faster. I know I could fix cars faster than I am right now” and that’s how he decides to become a pit crew member. They’re basically mechanics that can fix cars way faster than other mechanics. I don’t care how stupid that sounds. It’s gotta be partly true.
