It's amazing what a couple gallons of Nitromethane can do...

Look around for footage of Tony Schumacher's crash a few seasons back, I'll try & find it & post a link. Co-incidentally (or not) this car was an ex-Schumacher chassis as well. The flex is engineered in to aid hookup etc but I've wondered for awhile now whether their design is pushing the envelope just a bit too far.....

We are good fruiends with him and live very close to him i have seen the car in bits
-
the americans actually used this crash in an investigation into drag racing saftey recently i heard

it still brings a shiver to watch that. Phil is one very lucky man. great footage too.

man he styled it with a 200 metre barrel roll!
Holy s***! Was he airborne through the traps?
Really says something about modern safety equipment, when a man can walk away from something that violent.
