I think sixshooter is thinking of the magnesium cars. They'd rather be thrown because you can't put it out if it catches fire. And grinding against concrete at 100mph is a great way to generate some sparks. I'm sure some of the earlier cars that weren't magnesium didn't have belts either though.

There were no fire suits and the helmets were leather.
