    Wow, prayers to Steve for a speedy recovery. He is lucky his injuries were not more serious. Surprised more drivers are not injured with "lose lead" pieces flying around.

      A piece of lead? Was it a weight from another car or what?

          This kind of thing ended Billy Teegarden's career. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. Steve is one of the good guys. Glad it wasn't more serious.
