so now bowman is out. this has to stop
new front and rear clips?so now bowman is out. this has to stop
Here is a really good example of the older car rear end first into the wall and the energy that it absorbs.
My guess is that's when he realized something was off in his melon?Alex Bowman was in his sprint car on Tuesday. Make of that what you will.
Jimmie Johnson is the observer.

When did he know he had a concussion?Strange activity for someone with a concussion. Seriously, I’m a fan of Alex and want him healthy. But seeing him racing a sprint car same week as declared out for Cup needs some explanation.
My guess is when he was after getting out of the sprint car. Or is there some sort of conspiracy we looking for?When did he know he had a concussion?
I can’t imagine he climbed into that thing with concussion symptoms. Too smart and well-informed for that.When did he know he had a concussion?

I would never believe he got in a sprint car if he knew he had a concussion. I hope he doesn't get back in a cup car until he is 100% sure he is good to go. There will be another championship run next year.My guess is when he was after getting out of the sprint car. Or is there some sort of conspiracy we looking for?
Highly doubtful. Maybe there will be more conservative moving around in the pack but I am not holding my breath. Despite the concern and with some the hysteria being shown, comparing the driver's injuries in other series this year with the new car being not as safe (which is a temporary situation) as years previous Nascar's safety record is still right there up at the top. It's just not where the fans and the industry needs for it to be. It will get there though.As for Bowman and his sprint car, he was less likely to crash being the only car on the track. He'd have a greater risk racing at Talladega. As someone mentioned about the Dolphins QB, he suffered an apparent head injury on Sunday and played last night. Many have said he was risking further head trauma or even death by playing so soon. The same could be applied to Bowman. Maybe he didn't feel some of the signs until he was in the sprint car. Only he can answer that.
Harvick and Hamlin both took to Twitter last night to mention their concerns about the stiffness of the new car last fall. Both are fed up from little being done NOW. We may see a parade on Sunday until the last few laps as drivers show their concerns to get NASCAR's attention.
I actually watched the Miami game last Sunday, he took a massive hit to the head during the second quarter and was back on the field for the second half.not to bring up NFL , but did anyone just see what happen to Miami QB, looks like some serious head trauma. Praying for the guy.
And how did that work out for him? In the 20th century drivers never stopped racing after multiple concussions all year.Pretty sure Dale Jr raced for 3 races in 2016 after his Michigan crash.
