Quiktree don't know what to tell you..Apparently you did not look at the youtube video close did you? It is a TV show, not life or death. Just call it as I see it from the NON TV camera point of view.
Oh yeah just for your future reference. If the tire is NOT moving by the time your light is green you are DEAD LATE, PERIOD. Would think someone who races would know better than that. We have what's called ROLLOUT. If you do not understand how the timing system works then maybe pay attention next time you are at the track. If you are not moving when it is green on a tree you are late and will be on the trailer... you can't be serious If you stage light, there is a few inches of roll out there to be had. Why do you think Super Stock and Pro Stock guys stage so light.. Yep.. To get a rolling start without red lighting.. Chris.. ok then how does that work with an instant green? thats petty much what flash light racing is. you move before the light you lost plain and simple.

How does rollout come into effect where there are no stage beams and you are leaving on a single light flash. Last time I checked, there is no "timing system" in a street race Monte its pretty obvious some of these guys know nothing about street racing.

Opinions are like azzholes...everybody has one....Rule #1 in street racing..Nuteral(sp) guy holds the money and the same for the starter...that was a [censored] call from the home team....and thats my opinion even if the great monte smith doesn't agree...like i care....that was a home town call where would you find this neutral person?

Last time I checked, there is no "timing system" in a street race Monte its pretty obvious some of these guys know nothing about street racing. OKAY Tony.. First of all I don't even agree that Pete moved. But besides all of that, I lived, breathed, ate and slept street racing in L.A. as a youngster until I was smart enough to stop. I guarantee you, that In L.A. Street Racing, In Detroit and In New York, Petey and Chucky would have been paid. Seems, only in OKC they don't. No doubt in my mind. So we can agree to disagree. Chris..

I would speculate I have WAY more time street racing than you do, I used to put food on the table street racing. Street raced from the late 80's til 2008 all over the west and Midwest, finally stopped when it became a felony CA and they confiscated and crushed your car if caught. But that is just a guess. Can tell you we never bothered racing for a few hundred bucks either, to much risk for to little return there.
I am pretty sure my point about moving before the green was strictly aimed at racing at the track but maybe I was not clear, seemed like I was but maybe not. I also pointed out that IMO the car on SO CEARLY did not move before the light came on IMO. But maybe that was not clear to you either.
I also agree the money holder and starter should both be neutral parties. Always were when we street raced, then again we never made a spectacle of ourselves either as that draws unwanted attention.

The pressure on your body it would take to break the seat belt tab and seat mount has to be big. He is lucky to be alive. Sucks about the car, but it can be replaced.

I really hope he makes a speedy recovery. Honestly though was ANYTHING in that thing bolted down? I wouldnt want a bucket of bolts like that next to me in a race, I hope ALL them boys learn from this, I can see a seat breaking but not breaking away from the f&****g car, and that seat belt tab AND the nitrous bottle projectile was unacceptable.
Mopar to the bone!!!

In a roll like that anything is possible. It's hard to build a car and expect every last possible situation on where and how to brace stuff, for every last thing. The cage did its job. Dave survived, and he was contained in the car.
