one time after rushing to make changes to the car i had to quickly get strapped in and go out to pit road and i forgot to strap my helmet and when i came in i realized it and im like THANKG GOD i DIDNT WRECK!!!
People like this should not be allowed in race cars. And promoters should have their asses kicked for allowing such shit on the racetrack. Obvious there are no safety inspections of these cars. "Let's get their money, if they kill themselfs.....so what."
Man did he ever roll that thing . It held up pretty good for a Home Built . Some of those cars I've seen , are really bubble gumed togather. and that illustrates why you need to have someone who knows what there doing, when weldging up a rollcage.
this is scary to see for me having an uncle and a cousin racing in the enduro division today, even though the technology is so far advanced now than it was then
@jdogg67333 thats what i was thinking, when people die from major head trauma, they have a grand malle seizure that looks a lot like that. also notice that he isnt speaking, and really isnt focused on anything at all. and right before the video ends, his eyes are closed. Also note the guy in the checkered shirt makes a "cut" sign at his throat, indicating that its over.
Yea, I'm sure he just stuck the helmet on his head when he crawed in the car with the strap dangeling down , . It's to bad nobody noticed it . He must have fastened his seat belt though, or he might of flew out of the car. like his helmet did .
I do not Know if he returned to any kind of racing He may have. He competed in a hobby division and I think I would seek out a different hobby after a ride like that. I was working in the video booth calling the Race and I was sure he would not recover. It was scary to say the least.
Hope he was ok. That helmet shouldn't have come off. That was a violent crash. Crazy he's driving such an old car, most guys around here drive metric chassis or camaros now.
well this happened back in 1986. As I recall he did recover from that Crash. And your right, his helmet should not have come off, but he like so many other drivers simply did not sinch it down tight enough.
I want to be that announcer. So full of enthusiasm!! He should take over Marty Reed on ESPN

renegade8002002740 3 years ago
I find it hard to believe that someone can be in a crash THAT severe, and recover. Did he recover enough to resume racing, work or a regular life?
Hope he did make it, but Id have to see a website for the guy to believe that claim.\
