Drag wreck, he walks away.....a miracle

[markjohnson]

Everytime I made a pass in my Orange '55 Gasser with only a 4-point rollbar and it's flimsy fiberglass doors I thought about this video. I've been pretty fast in some serious Drag Radial Shootout cars, but the 11-second time slips in that '55 were definitely the scariest. I did not like going fast in that particular car. I'll tell 'ya what's scarey about this particualr video is that's a 12.30 car and it's not even to the 1/8 mile yet which means that crash happens probably at no more than 80 MPH. Maybe even slower and look at how that car falls apart.
