Prayers for everyone involved in this accident. The car is a 57 Chevy that has run 6.90s at over 200 MPH....

This is a curiosity question. Has anyone heard anything about this incident??

If it is being kept quiet out of respect for those involved, I get it.

Like I said, just curious.

Praying for complete recovery for all involved in this incident.

Lots of talk about this over on the Bullet. Some have been reporting that Lagana was badly burned and lost both of his legs. Crampton is recovering. Bad deal all the way around for those guys.

Thanks for the update Mike. I hope the part about Lagana isn't true. Yes, a bad deal all the way around. Praying and hoping for a good outcome for them all.

So that's what Ron Capps was talking about on his FB page. I believe there is a go fund me or something set up.

Ron, "Ongoing police investigation. Speed is believed to have been a factor." This fills in most of the blanks. Maybe shooting for a spot on Street Outlaws?

Dude, seriously? :(

A little empathy might be in order for the injured...including one still fighting for his life. -Al

Dale, we may be friends, but a little more thought should have been in place before your statement.

It ISN'T about what they did, but how they come out of this bad situation. My prayers are for everyone to be A O.K. after this deal.

Re: Not class racer but drag racing news
 

You mean to tell me, that in years past you never took a car out on the street and didn't do the non smartest things with it. It was an accident, not an on purpose and people got hurt reeel bad. Just say prayers for them,

Re: Not class racer but drag racing news
 

My appologies for coming off as a jerk. I didn't mean to speak ill of those involved.I read the article but missed the seriousness of Lagana's injuries.

We would like to thank everyone for their continued support for Dom. Concern has spanned the entire world, and although hard for us to talk about, we wanted to give an update to everyone.

Dom has had some improvements as well as some more challenges. This is going to be a long difficult road for him, but he is fighting so incredibly hard. A third surgery is planned for tomorrow, Friday August 21st so please continue to send him your positive thoughts and prayers.

The staff at Sidney and Lois Eske**** Hospital have been nothing short of a building full of Angels. Their dedication to their patients and the compassion showed to our family and friends has been amazing.

Although a difficult time, we would like for Dom’s situation to spread some positivity to his supporters. Maybe just thank someone you have been wanting to thank, or call a family member or friend you have not spoken to in awhile. Just be thankful for the people in your life and keep your faith.

Doms favorite band is 311, mainly because they live by the motto “stay positive and love your life”. We have been listening to a lot of 311 these last two weeks and trying to stay strong and positive for him.

We have found it fitting to dedicate Bill Wither’s “Lean On Me” as our song to Dom. If you have a minute, play the song and know we are very thankful to have all of you in Dom’s life and in our lives.

Thank you and God Bless.
-Bobby, Sara, Marie & Laura.

Stay strong and let the Doctor's do their magic. With God's help Dom will be back with you all soon.

A perfect song for the situation.
