Everyone I've talked to on the scene knew the injured woman was dead, unfortunately. But to pronounce that at the scene would have meant a stoppage of the event, and an official police investigation on the grounds, so she had to be whisked away to be pronounced at the hospital and the show could go on. It's a sickening reality, but it's standard protocol for any large sporting or public event in this country.
Steve 1118 I think you are overcenter on many of your NHRA comments, but I agree 100 percent with the Idea that it's time to limit pump/mag/blowers in the fuel classes.
I think fences are a bad idea, I dont want to see a blow-over getting entangled in a fence...but the sport changes constantly so we have to look at every option...
