Stoneleigh springs to mind. That tyre could quite easily have come out the back or side into the crowd, taking some poor little lads head off.

Didn't they test that on Mythbusters? Something about a wagon tyre exploding and decapitating a biker...
Not saying it's not possible to be hit in the face with a big chunk of rubber though
Ha, never much liked tyre burnouts and now I have a another good arguement against. Big smirk to feeling a right burke!
Here's another reason why I don't do it myself.

Just watched it now and there's one problem.
That tyre broke across the tread. Where's the steel belting? Do they not have basic technology like that over there?
If it did I'd be suing the tyre makers cos it's not supposed to break like that, and I've tried to cut them!

Yeah but my point is that the failure would be along the sidewall not across the tread. All depends if they have steel belting in america
The forces on the belting would be enormous at say, 200mph.
imagine the poor diff!!!
