If that's the case, he'd best find another welder......

I was going to say the same thing..... Once that car got into rolling, it just picked up deadly speed. I wish him a speedy recovery.

He was the welder. Hope Dave fully recovers.

Does anyone else find it ironic that a street racer goes to a racetrack only to lose control of his car and wreck it? It could have happened anywhere I guess. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

It was a no prep event Neal. I don't race all that much, but my experience is that an unprepped, or poorly prepped track is more dangerous than a clean street once you get going. I've gotten sideways before on the 1-2 shift or sometimes half way down a poorly prepped track at test and tune night, even in an AWD car. I've never gotten that squirly on the street unless it was dirty or a real smooth surface.
