I just got home from ETown...........I'm physically sick to my stomach. As a racer who ran Super Comp up to a couple of seasons ago, this is always the toughest part......

GOD Speed, my friend.

This has to be one of the most horrifying crashes I've ever seen.

ESPN did re-play a video of the accident, it's up on youtube as of now...please view at your discretion

Rest in peace Scott.

God Bless Scott and his Family....Very Sad

I am a big Drag Race fan and have been for 40 years. These cars run on the edge all the time. They need to slow them down. I don't think the average fan can tell the difference between a 4.70 and a 5.20 JMHO
