Does it change your feelings about a cage?

When you get out of the groove you need to let out!!!
I hope that Chris is ok.

My junk will go 25.5 before I go down the track!!!

Bad accident, I sure hope he is ok too. Kind of hard to say what could or couldnt have been done to save it.

Yes Dave, what are your feelings about one???

No they haven't changed, cages/bars are a must have piece!

At the end of that guy's post it said Chris was OK. Looks like he hit hard.

I must have gotten the wrong Dave! I thought this is your car pictured here going mid 9's with no bar:

Dave has a bar, but not a cage the last time I checked.
With as fast as he is going I would consider a couple more bars.
He did not ask for my opinion though!!!

Agreed, but I will say that the 2+ minutes of staging games didn't help hold heat in the tires...

Glad he is ok...i have two versions of that video and on one (didnt look at the one posted) you can see the Buick was way out in front of Dan Millen and could have pedaled it and still easily won. Who knows how we would react in that situation in a car that fast with his experience. Hopefully he will be back soon!

Thanks in advance.

heres the other angle
wonder what his 1/8th was?

 

[blackshoebox]

Wow, the almighty Dan Millen almost got beat by a buick v-6!?! Looks like it would have been a 2-3 car length victory for the buick, if he did not wreck.

 

[Loosenut]

Word has it that the Buick was leaking.

Dan Millen said it was so close he could have touched the car.

Scary, it reminds me of Steve Grebeck...RIP.

WOW, they had that v6 dialed in!

Not too many launch that fast on a pro tree!

Very true... I think it helps a bit that they run twins instead of a big single with the automatic... I've only seen a few V6 guys like Kibler and Dale Cherry that have been successful running a big single with an automatic in HU competition on a pro tree (I could be wrong, but I think both of them use or have used the FB performance VSC)... I know Billy will chime in and say screw the auto just get a clutch with the big single!
