Here comes the spin machine saying how safe the sport is.

You know nothing about the sport. Stick to little league baseball, tennis, and some occasional women's golf.

He hit a wall, did I see right? Why is there a fucking wall at the end of a track where cars routinely blow up while doing 300 mph? :shocked:

I was thinking the same thing. I guess there's a parachute that stops cars in normal circumstances, but if the car blows up, I'm sure the chute-detonating mechanism gets burned up also. Not sure that he would've lived through the initial explosion, however.

I couldnt believe that wall was there either. Ive been to the drag races in columbus and at the end of the pit there is an open field.

well guess what? nobody forced him to drive..it was simply his chosen profession..

no different than a guy working for the power company and getting electrocuted...or a porn star getting aids

RIP Scott



shut down area what a joke

what was the size of that sand pit

and the wall if you don't own enough land for a drag strip the NHRA should not race there

After watching this again I cant believe the NHRA would even race at a place without proper safety measures I wouldnt be suprised to see outrage from other drivers because of this wall this close to the end of the strip

If its your time to go, thats the way to do.

I'd rather die going 300 mph in a dragster with your balls on fire than have a heart attack and die on the crapper.
