Bottom post of the previous page:

Didn't mean that, sorry. It just seems strange to me to record just flips, and of just one sanctioning body. It's like making a list of all football goals for one single club scored with the left foot alone.

No I get where you're coming from! Since I started this list, my mate @Seibara ended up making a much bigger and much more detailed list that literally touches every base except WRC and NHRA.
You can check that one out here.

It's definitely a lot of work finding things for one massive spreadsheet that spans many different disciplines, but since NASCAR is more my niche, that's what I stuck with.

I will be in Daytona this weekend, should anything happen during the races, the list will be updated once I get home on Monday.

Glad these cars are built as strong as they are.

That was pretty gnarly. Glad Myatt is alive after that one.

I believe that is only the third time a Wood Brothers car has flipped in the last 50 years.

Jeff Burton made 695 Cup starts and never flipped, in fact I don't remember him ever getting airborne, yet his son flips in his second start...

Weird case here.

We do know Bob Flock did at least a full rollover and broke his neck in his crash, however the papers claim that Flock and these other two fellas, Hank Lee and Ted Tedrow, just rolled "onto their sides".

I don't know how these sportswriters can mistake the roof from the side, but if Flock certainly flipped, could we have a case for the other two?

My guess is this first one is a regional modified series and that's why I can't find it on the spreadsheet, but I'll put it here just in case.
