Jeeze.

That's a good read. Motherfuck that track extinguishing crew with a nappy 6" extinguisher. As everyone said, the driver is lucky to be here. Hard to look at.

Beautiful destruction, that was seriously enough inspiration for me to want to buy a Rebel camera.

Re: Dsm Track Fire:take A Look!

I've seen that vid. I've been contemplating getting a on board fire supression system for the car. They are only about 300 bucks with discharge nozzles for the engine bay and the drivers area. If I ever get around to building another fast DSM I will definitely put up the cash. Its amazing how I'll spend thousands on other parts year after year, but will put off spending 300 on a FSS.

Re: Dsm Track Fire:take A Look!

wait. that guy seriously needs to sue the track because last time i checked all circuit/drag races has to have a fire truck on hand, and not to mention people who actually know how to use a fire extinguisher.

PS: I feel real bad for that guy, i always hate to see when these sexy DSM's get hurt. Even if one has a scrach, it sux real bad.

Man that car was completely gone after the fire. Sucks to see it burning so long without being put out.

I don't know the guy, but from what I've seen of his posts I don't care for him. The guy has done a lot for dsms, and buschur racing sells some nice parts, fair enough. Seems a bit an A-hole on occasion.
