2 Race Car Drivers Killed Near Reno

From the Reno Gazette Journal: Two race drivers were killed in a multi-car crash at the Reno Fernley Raceway near Fernley, the Lyon County Sheriff’s Office reported Sunday.
Leroy Kay, 67, of Yerington, and David Richardson, 63, of Truckee, Calif., were killed during a race Saturday night on a dirt track at the raceway about 30 miles east of Reno, Lyon County deputy sheriffs said.
At least one other driver was treated at the scene for minor injuries, deputies said, and spectators were told to leave after the crash.
Kay’s longtime girlfriend, Donna MacGill, said the crash occurred during the main event for “dwarf” cars, which are small cars with motorcycle engines that can reach speeds over 100 mph.
MacGill, an eyewitness, said one car went out of control and smashed into the wall on the final lap at the finish line, causing a chain-reaction accident involving at least two other cars.
“One guy went into the wall and he spun around and I think he hit this other person, who in turn hit Leroy and those two people died,” she said. “It created a domino effect when the one car went into the wall, and it all happened so fast.”
Track owner Dan Simpson hung up Sunday morning on a reporter seeking details about the accident.
