Dirk Stratton's Corvette lobbed this at my head
Maybe half-a-second after taking this shot and this one (flic.kr/p/XvKYFL), I got domed. Either a rock or a rubber marble got kicked up and nailed me right in the forehead. The arrow points to what ended up hitting me. I saw a buildup of gravel and rubber chunks on the outside of the racing line, as is normal, but I figured nobody would be drifting that area. I was wrong. Note: I had media access to the track so I was closer than most people would be, but I wasn't anywhere I wasn't supposed to go. It was just bad luck.
