I'm at the Gators, and I saw the crash. He had fluid coming out of the motor and going under the drive tires. It looked kind of white and cloudy like maybe it was water, but I'm not sure

[quote=pittsburghracer]Rumor is they are having head issues.


His or the engine?

Glad he's ok.


Truth has no agenda, but those with an agenda make their own truth.
Some of us are so open minded they only see their View

I saw the leak from the video and it sounds like either head gasket issues or cracking heads.

You do understand sarcasm, right?
So, why do we car a mustang crashed?
Because he’s a “ Mopar” engine builder?
Would the comments be the same if it was a Tasca car?

Barton drives a COPO, not a Mustang.

I guess I shared it because some of us do like and follow the class. Many of our members also know and follow his family. Hope I didn’t ruin your St Patrick’s Day. Lol 😂
