I have seen the same thing happen at the Winternationals in 1975 or 1974 when a driver in a 1964 Plymouth Beledere M.W. B/SA ran into a former winternational winner(Marcel Cluotueir(SP?) in stock. The Belevedere ran into the back of the 1969 Mustang C/SA doing a burnout before the Mustang was even staged No more burn outs allow to start until the other pair of cars had taken off from the starting line after that.The Plymouth owner told the Mustang racer to pound sand also NHRA use to run sportmans cars through the timers like a bunch of kindergarten kids getting free candy at the school cafeteria If I was the Mustang owner in this deal I would be talking to the track owner and thier insurance company, if that didn't work I would be seeing if I could get a young smart humgry lawyer to help me Stuff happens at the race track, when it involves stupity or negligenced(SP?) someone should pay
