Rehagen racing Boss takes out tires
Ran across this on jalopnik, our friends at Rehagen Racing suffered a brake failure resulting in a pretty incredible video of the tires stopping the car. I've heard through a Source very close to the team that the driver is fine.

I have to admit though that the top comment on the youtube vid made me laugh.

Wow. I guess that vouches for the structural integrity of the car. I thought that was going to be a lot worse than it was. When I saw the car heading across the sand at full speed I was expecting it to pretty much shatter on impact. But even the body panels look pretty well intact afterwords. Bet the driver needed fresh pants though.
He was smart to rotate the car as much as he could though, so he didn't end up face first into the wall.
