Sunday’s T-bone impact was so hard that it ripped a portion of the passenger door open on Larson’s car, allowing some of the padding to emerge, and it collapsed part of the driver’s roll cage. The visor on Preece’s full-face helmet flew up when he torpedoed into Larson’s car. Preece attributed his visor’s reaction to the fact he never fastens it. Both drivers walked away from the accident.
“It was probably one of the toughest hits I’ve ever taken in a race car, and I’ve hit walls with hung throttles on concrete, concrete walls with dirt behind them,” said Preece, whose house was struck by lightning during a storm two weeks ago. “The only thing I saw was, I think, he has fruit on the hood of his car,” Herbst said. “It was like a big strawberry in my face and the next thing I know I’m in the infield care center.”
“I’d be curious to compare what I looked like compared to Ryan because the incidents were actually very, very similar,” Herbst said. “What’s odd to me is how different the two race cars looked. I don’t know much about the building of the race car, but my race car is gone. It’s going to the shredder and Ryan Preece’s race car .”
