Why did he crash? During the 2000 NASCAR Xfinity race at Watkins Glen, Jimmie Johnson suffered a violent brake failure entering Turn 1. His Alltel Chevrolet shot through the grass at nearly full speed, bounced over the gravel trap, and slammed head-on into the foam barrier with enough force to send chunks flying over fifty feet into the air. Miraculously he emerged from the car unharmed. #motorsport #crash #racing #RacingCrash #racecar #nascar #chevrolet #WatkinsGlen #f1 #CarCrash | Racingcrashe
