Very unreal and very sad news in the sport of drag racing:

Read the headlines.

 

wow, that is unreal. I'm surprised that an automatic shutoff isn't a madatory requirement. It wouldn't be too hard to engineer, a small piezo gyro, and if the car makes any rapid side to side or vertical movements then shut off the valve via solenoid.

 

Hi people

 

mysteries of the universe.. unreal..

 

May I please ask a question? As you can see >>>>> I am new to this!

 

how can we help?

 

It was very bad i dont live far from there

 

yall are right the first thing to go through my mind was unreal i thought them car's only had fule for the 1/4mile sad day in the nhra i still dont see how that car could do something like the they need a auto shutoff like they have for monster trucks where someone can shut them down when something like that happens

 

wow... you'd think there are enough failsafes that this wouldn't happen.

now it makes me wonder how much fuel those things can hold. i always thought they'd only have enough for one run only and not enough for a second run (since it doubled back to the starting line)

 

Bizarre and tragic.

 

My sincerest apologies to all!!!!!

 

I shall endeavor to be more social. thank you.
