Default Re: Boy does this look familiar

I can dig up videos of lot's of cars behaving the same way on the dragstrip. Matter of fact there was a mustang at gateway 2 years ago that did the exact same thing.

I would be hesitant to claim defect on any material item, almost every crash I have seen at the track can be boiled down to driver error. When one has an expectation for the car to handle exactly the same way, and becomes complacent, bad things can happen.

It's racing, and wrecking a car does not make one a bad driver, just shows that perhaps they made a bad decision in compensating for a situation that presented itself.

High Power cars, street tires = bad combo imho.

I wouldn't let it haunt me Dom, just chaulk it up to an expensive lesson. It could happen to anyone of us when we launch down a track. A wreck doesn't define you, or your driving abilities. You buck the tiger long enough eventually you miss the tail.
