Close call at E-Town Fall Nationals!
Watch this video, you'll shit bricks.
http://s116.photobucket.com/albums/o...=CloseCall.flv My gf got that one. I shit my pants again when I saw it in the trailer. Here's a sweet pic a spectator got as well. http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o...er1/crash1.jpg I barely missed the guy, but all was well and it was back to racing an hour later.

Re: Close call at E-Town Fall Nationals!
Wow! How close were you? Angles can be deceptive sometimes. Hit anything?

Re: Close call at E-Town Fall Nationals!
Thats crazy. Glad your ok. When I read the title I was thinking that you were racing and the car got away from you.

Re: Close call at E-Town Fall Nationals!
Thanks guys.
 It was as close as it looked. I thought I had to have clipped the guy and checked the car when I got back to the pits, but it was fine. I was going over 100 when he crossed the center line. He took the worst of it in that exchange, but the car was on a record pace. I really wish I could have finished that run.

Re: Close call at E-Town Fall Nationals!
The funny part is I let the guy go first. The car directly in front of him (rx7 IIRC) lost a rear tire and did a 180 on the starting line. The other driver was fine, but the car took a decent beating. I'm sure it's fine structurally though.
Here's another nice shot that shows the swerve action
