Pit crew injuries, including forearm, finger, and elbow issues as well as tendinitis have become the norm.
A growing safety issue is that NASCAR's new wheel’s spokes are not able to contain the sparks flying from the air gun.Team owner and driver Brad Keselowski says the old wheel had a “really deep dish to it and the sparks would tend to roll in that dish and stay inside the wheel assembly.”One explanation is that the new air gun is heavier than the old one, and its nose weight is substantially greater as is its torque force.
”That good communication between crew members kept one Team Penske tire carrier from losing a finger. Heisel says the tire carrier stuck his fingers through a wheel’s spokes, planted the wheel and before he could remove his fingers during a two-tire stop, the tire changer abruptly tightened the single lug. The crewman suffered an extensor tendon injury and the loss of skin, partial thickness on top of the tendon. Surgery wasn’t required, but he lost six weeks of work.
