Re: Race car burnt at Motor Mile Dragway
The man that owns this car is a personal friend of mine. I talked to him yesterday. The car is not a total loss. It needs a windshield,a new vinyl top, a headliner,a new carb and some hoses and lines. This is what I was told by him yesterday. He said he should have had a fire system on the car. The car is a really nice car. It is a nitrous car and no doubt should have a fire system of some kind and he said IF it comes back out, it will have one. No doubt, the fire truck should have had a driver or at least a good battery. Also.....the track does have fire extinguishers along side the track wall every so many feet. Its a terrible situation and the owner of that car is about as good a guy as you'll ever meet and hes not pointing fingers at anyone. I pray that he gets it back together.
