STEVE-O Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 How in the world did it just explode apart like that? It did not appear he hit like a pole or anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeto67 Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 How in the world did it just explode apart like that? It did not appear he hit like a pole or anything He hit a telephone pole. IT's in shadow in the video so it's hard to spot. Turn the brightness all the way up and you'll see it. The thing that baffles me is that the vid makes it look like he hit the pole head on off center to the right side, but the damage looks like he struck it broadside. maybe the car turned when it hit the grass and I just can't see it. either way, dude is lucky.

BStowers023 Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Tha Pad. Used to race there sometimes when I lived in southern MS. Saw some crazy fast cars and some almost horrific accidents similar to that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGU Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 If you're going to do racing at that level why would you not have a cage? Also though to be fair with a cage he probably would have smashed his head on the cage looking at the rest of his safety gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 How this guy lived is pure luck. https://www.dragzine.com/news/insane-video-mustang-ripped-in-half-after-a-street-race-crash/ When stupid meets luck. Insane capture and the fact that he isn't twisted up among that wreckage is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Sloppy ass pieced together tin can of a Mustang, I wouldn’t want to go the speed limit in that bucket. These idiots are just stupid. I will say this; street racing is an addiction and these are the worst type, throw some crap together just so they can race and they’re either lucky or dead. I’m an addict but luckily not on that level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m an addict but luckily not on that level. Pretty much. I saw it first hand. A lot of those guys go get a rusted out IROC outof the junkyard, weld some shit together with who knows what skill level and throw an iron block in it, spray the house down and run it.

1Quik7 Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 Whats the story? Looks like bad driving. The other car started drifiting and from the front view it looks like the Purple Stang or whatever color just panics and cuts the wheel...

I do hope that spot does't get shut down. Yes it's preached about safety, but good times are had just flat out putting it all on the line.

coltboostin Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 This is quite literally worst case scenario, but even a simple 6 point increases the saft of the car 300%. ASKMEHOWIKNOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
