man that sucks. Hope he was ok. If you look, the wall was pretty busted up where the car impacted. Wonder why he lost it? It looked like for a split second when he started to wobble if he had just let off it coulda been prevented.
Note to self - car gets wobbly, f**k the race, get off the gas!

I've seen that vid about 15 times...makes me cry everytime I see it. Not to be a scoundral, but I would like to get a hold of the two wheels that weren't scuffed so I could put them on the back on mine; widened to 10.5

On a related matter....can you get insurance to cover mishaps while drag racing?
If not, this little bit of fun is really going to cost that guy. The car is probably a write-off.

I don't think that he did. It would be tough to shift into 1st under that kind of acceleration- there would be a lot of resistance and you would really have to force it hard. He just screwed up.

He forced the gear into 1st.
Usually insurance won't cover wrecks at a track.
