Eldon Palmer is a car dealer in Indiana. He drove the Dodge Challenger to promote that car in the Indy 500 1971. Palmer set up a traffic cone on the pit lane to show himself where to begin slowing the car. But someone moved the cone away, Palmer stepped on the brakes too late, lost control of his car and slammed into a temporary grandstand with photographers.

  • @C0LL1N Wikipedia would suggest otherwise.

  • That was Hamilton's fault!

  • nobody fatally injured in that crash, but im sure at least 12 drivers were killed in accidents during the race

  • junk mopar

  • HURDURRRR

    

  • Must've been Kyle Petty driving

  • How the fuck does this happen???  I mean really, brake...gas...brake...gas

  • should have already been slowing down waaay before that happened.

  • im not sure about the car being out of control. If you watch carefully, the driver basically drifts to the left, avoiding hitting a large group of people standing where the pit row ends. If he hadnt of done that, I think it would have been much worse.

  • What the hell? Im sorry but it was funny
