So which door did the Camera man run out?

Why is the driver on the wrong side of the car? LOL

The closest one

Thank God he is OK.....In my racing carer that has been my worst nightmare. And with the Arrow it's not that easy to get out of.

So no medal for the Camera guy then.

I remember years back at Carlisle they doing numerous Dyno pulls, with cars with tires at nearly eye level, completely surround by rows of standing spectators, anything thing from a blown tire, etc could cause a lot of bystander injury. Nobody seemed concerned.

I have seen lots of videos of people doing 3000-4000hp chassis dyno pulls lately. In every one of them the driver is suited up like he is going to make a pass, helmet and all.

What steps do you take when there is a fire in the shop? F'kn big ones.

Clark.Dale Heiler is the Aussie who rode with Frank Sapanaro at DW 18.Frank had told me about it I just hadnt seen the video.Wow

Having been in a car that caught fire I can tell you it is an excellent motivator for you to exit the car. I also will not have a car without a fire system on board.
