Alcohol dragster?

I saw it on the webcast, his chutes deployed, but detatched from the car instantly!, he then went thru the sand and hit the first net hard!, so hard the chassis appeared to "fold up"!, it stayed tangled in the first net. I found out he died from his injuries....R.I.P.
Seems like the nets need to be examined, or replaced with another type of catch system. Its gonna get interesting now. I dont think length of shutdown had anything to do with this one.
