Another racer death ( Texas man )

[BP]

Dudes a nut for not caging that up better at those speeds. Flyweight fwd with low pressure slicks can get interesting fast.

Did the car ever run 9s? Fastest video I can find is 10.3s. I've seen lots of way faster cars without even a roll bar. Not saying it's smart and they weren't a tin can CRX.

the compilation I saw on FB for his memorial has the announcer saying 9 second runs.

Facebook shows low 9's and someone said he has gone buck sixty in that

If that's true the track needs to have their NHRA sanctioning looked at. There is no way that car had any kind of chassis certification.

Learned a hard lesson, people that allowed him to race that should be ashamed

imagine the guilt of the tech person

[TRAILBLAZER]

Tech person and friends, no one should of been silent

[CJ]

you want to watch him be critically injured to the point he died? eesh, tough crowd!

No, I want to see what exactly happened so I can learn from it.

This is from a friends facebook.

I had some time to compose myself and want to take the time to thank you guys for the kind words, I lost my cousin few years back that was petty hard for me and now I lose one of my best freind and had to sit there and witness it helplessly. We met of course through racing at Kennedale raceway back in the days, he was a very quiet and shy petson some people even thought he was an asshole but that was the way he was. He seen me run my buddy's car and told me that he was impressed and loved my driving skills I told him the same and we immediately became really good friends, we started to go to all the ifos and boti events in his old school chevy truck with no ac, he use to tell me how he loves that I have the passion for cars as much as him and that he can always count on me to go with him to almost every race knowing how busy my schedule is and circumstances were. This last race he really wasn't acting like himself, as soon as we got on the road he was silent and told me he wanted to quit racing for a while and just relax, he dedicated his life to the sport and I poured thousands of dollars and time into it. He had told me "people are scared of going fast, some lift when it gets scary, but I think when it's your time it's your time", he also told me and Jason Martinez "my father died at 47 and I don't think I'll even make it that long" on the way to the hotel the night before the race. He was really happy that I came with him to this last race and told me he wanted me to witness his first 8 second pass. He was always willing to help anyone without ever asking for help in return or even help period. This is the hardest thing I'll have to deal with but time will heal me, I feel so bad for his brothers and mother. I got my last good bye next to his death bed and told him I'll shake and bake till I die , I know that's how he would of wanted it. Farewell my dear friend I'll see u in the next life. Big loss
