2010 Sportsman Shootout AAA Dragway Fontana California - Nostalgia Eliminator I competitor Dave Rico has some kind of mechanical problem (possible fuel line came off at the hit of throttle) and fluids got underneath the tires off the line. The blown altered made a hard left and the driver tried to correct but the machine ended up doing a slow roll over with a pretty nasty hit once it went over. The driver was okay and walked away.

as the car makes its first bounce upside down, you can see his arm come out of the cockpit. Why do drivers think they are above using their arm restraints? Happened at Cecil county a couple years ago, guy rolled his dragster, lost his arm in the crash because his restraints were back in the trailer.....then he had the nerve to come back to the track with a collection bucket to help pay hospital bills "AND FUND A NEW CAR" I don't think so buddy.
