Quite the sound when they collided. Thats some scary shit! Thats why they are the PRO's.

the kinda poof noise of the air and everything with the collision and the sound of the explosion = eirely scary. Exactly why they are pros and at the track with those cars. A guy i work with thats what he does for spare time is pit crew with teams like that and he still is amazed how many times they make it down the track and narrowly miss. Nice post still scary to see.

Good vid Mike any more info on that crash? Did wife Debbie become a widow?

Nightstalker
I would assume that they were ok. This was origionally posted on superhonda. There was no followup information there. Professional drag racing is one of those sports that is pretty safe from what I understand. The cars are built to take that kind of thing. It looks a lot worse because the way the fiberglass gets ripped off the cars.

A lot of big chunks flying off in different directions is a good thing because it's absorbing and transferring energy from the impact.

And, despite the collision, at the point of impact, that has got to be one of the coolest noises I've ever heard.

B-Wurm :D

The guys were O.K......just a few bruises. The only reason the guy that flipped on his side was O.K. was that he was above the point where the other car impacted. VERY lucky!

Nightstalker
Yep, I talked to someone that saw the actual crash live on tv when it happened. They were both fine.
