Did testing or lack of have anything to do with Dillon's accident? Of course not. The accident is a by-product of increasing speeds, close-quarter racing, and top-notch engineering. How about the sensors that are involved with seat belts? Think of all the testing involved in withholding the driver in place. While the car disintegrated around him, the cockpit stayed intact. The belts did what they were designed to do. Austin stayed in the seat.
He got out of the car and waved to the fans. What about the testing involved with the fence design? The car lifted off the track and careened into the fence. The car shattered but bounced back onto the track. A few fans in the stands had minor injuries. Not enough testing and the car could have been in the stands.
