I actually feel bad about the car.
If it had been the Camaro, it would be "funny".

So thats how they came up with the name "Shoe box"..Kinda looks like an old shoe box!!
Really nothing funny about that. I hate to see somebody’s hard work destroyed no matter what brand. Just my opinion.

I remember seeing that one also. His restraints were ripped out of their mounting points. Not good. He was definitely lucky.

No, it isn't funny and that guy is LUCKY. I should have put it in general discussion. I need to monitor where I am at more closely. There is a slow-mo of this and he is very fortunate to have staggered away from this. His legs are flailing out of the car while it is rolling.
It looks like he was trying to swerve to avoid a hit from the Camaro because that **** was all over the track refusing to let off. Lots of money and hard work down the drain.

You are right not funny at all . Both those cars just didn't have traction wondering if the track was dusty or something .

It may have been pit row on a nascar track.

Seat belts would of been a good Idea.. especially a Pro street styled car.. Common sense which Im sure he will have for the next one... Lucky man he is..
Kind of reminds me of a Rodded fenderless 30 Ford that went down the strip up here.. Most of the fellow hot rodders that morning said he was crazy to run his car on the track , because the front end looked aweful( Not put together well) . driver ignored the others.. did his start of the quarter mile.. the front end collasped at the finished gate.. nose dug in.. and the car totally disinagrated.. another stupid problem he had his seat belt attatched to the wooden floor board.. the frame went many directions.. the body flew apart.. and the driver was still tethered to the floor board.. in the middle of the field.. Body no where to be seen.. I watched this unfold from the race tower in calgary here. last race I was apart of.. .. his bad lessons effect everyone..
