[edit] Wimmer crashing

The photograph of Wimmer crashing the #22 car seems sort of pointless to me. It's not captioned nor even thumbnailed, and the article fails to mention where it is that the crash is taking place. I'm not going to remove it myself because someone else might know where the crash is taking place and can properly name it. I just thought I'd take the time to make note of it.

I did not remember the origin myself, but I did a quick image search on Google and found this result. The image can't be viewed since the site appears to be dead now, but the dimensions match perfectly with the one here, so it appears to be the source. The 20050220 on the end of the image's name gives away that it's from the 2005 Daytona 500, and a similar image and summary can be found here (scroll down to Lap 184).

I've thumbnailed it and added a caption. If somebody expands the section about his career, perhaps they can mention the crash in there too while summarizing his 2005 season. DomRem | Yeah? 21:17, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Actually, after taking a look at the image description page, it would seem impossible for the picture not to be deleted, since there is no copyright information. In fact, the source was provided as nascar-info.net, but the page was vandalized by an anon. With the site gone, this makes verifying the copyright all but impossible.
