Keep it at the track everybody.

WTF????

I don't understand how he got premission to run a funny car down a public highway lined with people :dunno: It makes no sense to me.

These cars are designed to run only on prepped race tracks and not public roads. Thats some fucked up shit.

What? :confused: Is every black woman on t.v Oprah Winfrey to you? She doesn't even look anything like Oprah Winfrey.

Ya ummm what do they think is going to happen when there is a funny car racing down the street with the wheels spinning?

It's a tradegy, but come out why are they doing this with wall to wall people???

tho_chi
its a big promotion to bring all the families out cuz its for kids.. but there are many other different attractions they could have used rather then a track only race car

ChromeDragon
This is just moronic. You don't put a 3,000hp+ car on a public road and expect it to have traction.

Do they line the race track with people in this town too?

Fish_e_o
am i the only person saying "thank god the wall wasn't were those people were"

it could have messed up that drag car pretty bad if there was a wall there...

THUD
Ya that is a huge Darwin award for stupidity like revving the engine and maybe a bit of tire smoke but that just not smart.
All that tragedy needed was this guy http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=5df_1182147708
same as that car and just as stupid
:eek: :blink:

Does anyone know if the driver died? Or just 4 spectators?

tokes
Driver was fine (it's a race car with a huge cage) but now 7 people have died at 20+ injured.

louren22
Yeah, as Tokes said the driver is fine but the death toll is up to at least seven. It takes a lot more than some people to injure a driver in a full tube-chassis car.

Fish_e_o, despite your desperate attempt, youre not funny.

fuck off you think i'm hilarious...:lol:

but seriously.. ya there's nothing funny about 7 people dieing

miiike
I couldnt believe this happened....but honestly who in hell would actually stand unprotected and watch this? These things crash all the time at the track (main reason for roll cage)...Are they going to start having nascar races on tracks lined with people instead of cement walls?

It blows my mind that this was ever allowed to take place. Think of how safety conscious race tracks are...even here when cars with under 200 hp are running quarter miles.

WorkInProgress
I didn't realize that he just hit people... I thought maybe he slammed into some parked cars or cement baracades or something? The video kind of sucked... Glad the driver is okay, but he's going to have to deal with the memory of killing 7 people for the rest of his life... I can't imagine...

turbodreamz101
thats jus str8 fucked ... i cant believe they would have an event like this . havin a car like this ridin down at high speeds with people as the baricades . jus a dumb move . good cause . but stupid idea to use a ride like that . :realmad:

Shady_Pro

devils advocate anyone?:dunno:

Prudz_lude
what a shame, that car got damaged :lol:

Just kidding that is really tragic and pretty fucked up that, that was allowed

that iraqi drifting is pretty insane

liveforspd
meh serves them right for being stupid

~sanj~
may those people rest in peace

Why is it whenever there's an accident, there's some witness who thinks he's an expert?

"He should have let off when he got to right about where we were, but he stayed on it and it started getting lose."

Thanks for the tips Earnhardt. People are dead, shut your pie hole on your opinions.
