  • Crash at the '14 Grand National Roadster Show

    I almost went, but got too much going on right now. Hope all involved are okay.



    "Folks, please, always make sure that your throttle is free and doesn’t stick. Not that we wanted this to be the first post for the Grand National Roadster Show but one of the contenders was approaching the viewing area to be judged when his throttle stuck, running over GNRS judging chairman Vic Cunnyngham, resulting is serious, though not life threatening, injuries. And the roadster is in bad shape. ALWAYS make sure that your linkage is free of hangups and interruptions or this can happen to you."

                      If u look at the 4th pic down in the link, it looks like the judge is still laying on the ground, after gettin run over.

                        It appears that one wanted out.

                          Tragedy?

                          Are they referring to the judge that was injured, or the car? If the former, I disagree since he lived and injuries are not life threatening. If the latter, a case could be made.
