Robert Hight's Fire at Topeka

In round 2 of Funny Cars at the 2007 O'Reilly Summer Nationals in Topeka, Robert Hight wins the race over Scott Kalitta but has a huge fire and tagged both sides of the wall. Hight is standing on top of the car before it came to a stop in the sand trap. Hight was not injured.

Paul Page Mike Dunn and Ron Capps are there to call that run.

Good to see him walk away....Force was haulin ass down there because hes already lost one driver this year....I didnt catch the rest but I know they advanced but did they get the car back out there??

They did get the car ready for the semi-finals. But leaking problems forced Hight to shut the car off before the burnout.
