Re: Jim Head??

Could it be a tire cover, to keep the sun off?

That was a tire cover that was left on the car. It flew up into the air about 20 feet before coming to a rest in the middle of the lane.

Re: Jim Head??

Did anyone else notice something flying in the air behind Head's car? What is it? It can be seen in the first 2 pictures of Head's car in the link that Bobby Bennett posted.

Edit: After looking at it again..... It looks like a tire cover that a crew member forgot was laying in/on the wing and blew off during the burnout.
