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.
