That sir was an understatement. Not sure I would not do the same.

forum where the guy discusses it: link



I saw the pics before they went down, the damage wasn't that bad. He says he's going to cut the roof and fix it, and just a few dents from hitting the wall and the roll over.



I'm ok just a bit fuged in the head rite now and huting a bit. When i undid the safety harness i fell on the roof and crinked my neck.

Still prety hiped up about it abd feeling sorta ok but i,m sure tomorow will suck.



To make a long story short.....

firsdt pass. track sucked and let off and coasted back.



2nd pass car left good, felt stuck then started to get loose, got out of the groove but hooked up again, pulled third and instantly got real loose. i let off and the card started sliding and there was nothing i could do. 1/8 mile was 100mph upside down spinning and slididing like a ****..Spun many times and glass and oil sparks flying everwhare...then stoped and burst into flames. Hit the firefox and the fire went out.



Thats it for now. I feel like a *** and deserve a good flaming. should have left off sooner but it felt ok, nothing i wasnt used to but then just in an instant went out of controll.
