Default Wormboy ( Steve Fereday ) hits the wall.

Well it was a awesome day of racing until later that night when steve World record holder ls1 7'9's at 176 and Brian lined up and steven treed the **** out of him and was gone but the car looked like it got out of the grove and made a pretty violent hit directly into the wall. Steve was okay just a little shaken. Almost took Brian out with him. Im glad everyone is okay. My friends wife has it on video Ill try to post it tomorrow.

Sorry to hear that. At least everyone (save the car) was OK. It's a shame when so much work gets balled up.

That sucks to hear! I'm glad I already did the photoshoot of that car on Thursday for GM High Tech, so it will still get some ink even if it is gone.

Stevens chassis wasn't near what it should have been.I'm glad he's ok.That car should have had a 25.5 in it for awhile now .

True, but most of the races they attend are only 1/8-mile. The 10-pt should be good for half track.

DAMN!

I'm very sorry to hear this. As long as Steve isn't hurt is all that matters. There are just to many damn guys going real fast on small tires... Something is going to happen eventually...

This doesn't make me feel good considering I will be running 1500 HP on a 10.5 tire too.
