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

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 😂

I live 10 miles from there shop and yes they started out with Hemi's and are still into them but in today's world it is all about money and making it to survive. They built Chevy stuff also and race what goes fast!
