I do not think anyone wants to see a fuel car of any kind that can barely outrun a Pro-Mod.I would prefer the cars ran a 1/4 mile also.If the track can not handle the cars safely (pro stocks etc incl) don't run them there.Tragically these types of freak accidents do happen.One lost life is too many.They will come up with a tether deal to prevent this from happening again.Where are the safer barriers to absorb some of the energy of a crash.All I have seen is cars careening off of concrete.All sanctioning bodies need to step up too.Remember overall the cars are much much safer than in the old days.

I was at Indy in 79 when the photographer was killed and the Top Fuel bike rider was also killed.There were also 2 or 3 fatal heart attacks and several nasty Top Fuel crashes with injuries.With heavy hearts we learn from these tragic events and carry on.
