That sucks to hear, but glad he is okay. Cars can be replaced and rebuilt, people can't.

I hope this is not true but if it is I hope he is ok. The car can be replaced.
He has had some bad luck in the past year. Didn't a car fall of some jack stands and fall on him this year?

Man this **** spreads like wildfire.... I JUST walked in the door from the track.

I have video of the pass, dunno what can be seen since I havent reviewed it yet... have some pictures too ...but not tonight, I'm beat. The last time I ran a 1/4 mile I swear the police must have been after me.

Hey Man, Glad your okay, I'm the guy with the 11.5 sec neon (White with blue stripes), but you even have a name over in our community. I was extreamly stoked to see you standing there with out a scratch next to the remains of the car. I hope you stay in it man. You defenetly had a good thing going. I really hope to see you back in the sport. Good luck bud and count your blessings, rumor is you made contact at 133+...

that makes me sick to seee the car in that shape, but the car is nothing compared to your health.

good to hear you are ok , cars/parts can be replaced but not you .

hope you stay in it too , and best of luck.
