Yep everyone needs a rollcage no matter how fast really cause someone can hit u just as easy! If i was keeping my car it was going to have a rollcage before i raced it again!

That thing still is pretty powerful. 891 I beleive.

From watching that vid, it looks as if Yaegar (red truck) wouldn't of tagged frank that it would have been a lot worse as for a head on into the wall. I was talking to someone about it the other day, and if things hadnt been the way they were with Frank cutting the 1.39 60ft, (say it was a 1.60 then he would have tagged Yaegar in the door) and the way the peices fell afterward.

You guys really are lucky.

Damn Frank hate to see that, as I just love that lighting. Glad no one was hurt and hope to see you racing again soon. Safety is the only way to go, that's why we have the rules to race by. Again see you soon, Wayne
