I'm so sorry to hear about this. I have followed all you cars motors and set up and I know how much time and work went into that car. I'm glad your okay. Thats all that really matters. The car can always be rebuilt but you can't. Good luck man and hope to see you posting soon to let everyone here know your okay coming form you.

Guys, In no way am I blaming this on Davids car at all. He is a drag racing friend of mine and I respect him. More than anything I am glad he is ok.
But, There were 4 & 5 second 1/8th mile cars at the track last night, two of which I was driving. I made passes in both lanes and there was no problems. In the top ET car I ran 1.19 60 foots and 5.40's @ 135. I was still over 120mph when I crossed the 1/4 mile. Im my street car, I ran 144 mph through the 1/4 mile traps @ 9.23 ET.
Now, Davids car makes 1000rwhp and is very close to being on the edge. It would not have taken much to make his car let loose for sure. I know Richmond Dragway does not let things slide. An hour before he ran they shut the track down to check the top end after a smoky run. I am personal friends with the Track Manager and I know he would not let anyone run on a unsafe track. Many people do not like RD because it is not the smoothest track around, but it IS the best hooking track around. I run 2-3 times a week at many tracks and none compare to the starting line @ RD. Please dont doubt the safety of RD guys... I have been racing there for 10 years and know the people very well...
David, I am glad ur ok my friend. I came to the end of the track to make sure you were. The car is metal that can be replaced. You couldnt have been.
