Re: driver OK report
Yes Andy's dad (forgot your name this instant. I am old too.) I know that the safety equipment is there but I know what people have in these cars ($100,000+) It would save a lot of cars from being wadded up! I raced a nostalgia Thunderbolt in my later years and I sold it and retired just a few years ago. I was under that car after every race checking for tightness and possible cracks etc. I raced also in PSCA and saw these "small tire" classes up close and personal. Even though some ran 1/8th mile with sometimes 2,500 hp and up there were some terrible crashes. That's one reason I believe that these high horsepower cars should be in Super/S . because of the ridiculous power they have their tires can break loose at any part of the racing surface and the big tires would lessen that probability. I talked to you when you first got your V10 Dodge and am keeping current with all aspects of drag racing because it is addictive as you know!
