During the pre-game ceremony at the NASCAR Spring Cup race at Texas Motor Speedway, racer Kevin Harvick had to make some last minute repairs when the sandbag of a skydiver parachuting into the arena struck his car.
The sandbag, weighing down one corner of a Texas state flag, dented the side of the Chevrolet. Harvick's team took the car off the track and did some quick repairs before the start of the race. Harvick tweeted a photo of the damage:
Never good when the day starts with a parachute weight hitting our car... Welcome to 2012.... twitter.com/KevinHarvick/s…
