OMG At The Track Tonight

Tonight at the race track we all were running our cars right...... Well a Suzuki Gsxr took off and about half track something happened, we just thought he broke traction or something no big deal right? well come to find out the oil plug vibrated out "what the bike owner said" the engine locked up and he couldnt get off the track. Well the people that work at the track 2 cars stage and take off, thank God that the camaro saw him and stopped. Just Goes To Show ppl get to comfortable in there surroundings.....

i was standing on the side lines on a angle and i could see him plan as day. they had a direct line of site to him, flat land. the only reason they didnt see him was because they werent paying attention. i mean the guy was screaming stop and waving his arms we all could see him in a bad position.

man thats nasty.
I gotta give props to my track here. they are always extremely good with this kinda stuff.
they wont allow you to do your burnout until the last cars have hit the 1/8th, and your not allowed to stage until the last cars have hit the traps.

that just sounds like sloppy safety standards to me, and it could have cost a few people their lives
