    I'd be interested in some commemorative decals if the funds go out to the cause, maybe we as TW can do one, similar to what Amaes has as his sig, and raise the money for fast-aid.org

    Mike, sorry to hear about all the sleepless nights bro. Keep your head up! Its unfortunate that anyone should have to go through this and see what you and others saw.

    Lets get some more donations rolling in guys!!!

    I can understand getting donations for the dead, injured, and other survivors, but to call it a tragedy is wrong. Stupidity a word that comes to mind. In this case, it's a wonder that more people are not dead or injured.
    When you stand that close to a race, this is what happens. Wake up!
    This was all AVOIDABLE.
