i know they were probabaly trying to stabalize it, but it looks like the official was dragging the guy out of the car by his neck.

Sucks, they will end up having to go to wheel teathers or something along those lines now, watch.  
HER FAMILY will sue and probabaly get money, but just like any sporting events, spectating a racing event is 100% at your own risk. Its normally on the ticket stubs.
