Competition Plus "Ronnie Davis is ALIVE. Rumors that are flying around about him passing away are INCORRECT. We have some inaccurate speculation and it can be very hurtful.We have been in contact with people who are at the hospital and he alive. Please keep your prayers going -- at this point it would be better to not comment further until we all get confirmation. SPREAD THE WORD PLEASE and keep praying. We will post an update on www.dragzine.com when we get something confirmed"

I hope I was wrong.........only posting what was supposed to be reliable info Monte I too read the same reports from different credible people and have been on the roller-coaster ride. Sounds like both the driver and photographer could use our thoughts and prayers. Man that was an ugly wreck.

Very ugly. Multiple hard hits from different directions. Looked to me like he may have come out of the car. I hope I'm mistaken. Positive thoughts out to both men and their families.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Yeah it is a very violent crash, the camera man can be seen moving around on the ground right before they cut the feed. I was flat amazed to see him moving at all (I am a firefighter and worked at Indianapolis Raceway Park for many years) Not for weak-kneed Go to 5:01 and watch

Wow! that's terrible. prayers going out. As windy as it looked there, it may have contributed to the car getting so high up.
