It's important to know this when you get on the track to race at Talladega: there is always the chance of a big wreck. Some drivers will intentionally drop to the back of the field to try to stay clear of what is usually a devastating pileup of race cars. Early in the International Motorsports Hall of Fame 250 ARCA race we saw a wreck that knocked out some race favorites. Later in the race, Mike Affarano walked away from a rolling crash that nearly tore his engine out of his car.
