After a very long uneventful day in the sweltering heat of turn 3, things got very frantic in a heartbeat at the very end of the race. Mike Conway (#24) clips Ryan Hunter-Reay's car in turn three, gets vaulted into the catch fence in the north short chute and then splits in two and disintegrates. Amazingly, Conway's worst injury was a broken leg.

One question, why are you posting theme here and not selling them for big bucks?

Great pictures an opportunity well taken!

Tried that yesterday..unfortunate​ly others also had good captures of the sequence and mine didn't get picked up. I do still have a couple of avenues working now.

This is truly amazing. The audience is very funny to look at in these pictures also, some don't even seem to notice the car up in the air, while others are looking at an other direction, and others are shouting and leaning over the fence to see the action.

Great captures. That was a hard hit that he took. He's lucky it was only a broken leg, this could have easily been much much worse.
