Jesus, the balls of these drivers to take a crash like Doohan's (granted, a totally self-inflicted one) and be expected to go out the next day and take the first corner at 160 mph.

That's why it's a young man's sport mostly.  As the drivers age, they start to think about things like that.  I think it's a big part of Checo's downfall.

I have seen some of the worst crashes at half-mile dirt tracks. And it is horrible to see and be so close, physically and emotionally, with the drivers.  One of the worst I ever saw & heard was the night Sammy Swindell slammed right into the back of a push truck.  The sound was scary
