Re: Driver ejection,NHRA cover up at St. Louis
FYI that the subject run is at the 6:49 mark of the YouTube link that Tony provided. Happened to be watching the broadcast live when it happened and thought hitting the brakes that hard was bizarre given he had just crossed the stripe so now we have “the rest of the story”. Very unfortunate but can probably catalog it as one of the million ways to lose and learn from it because there’s no logical resolution. Personally, unless I’ve got a clean neutral I steer away from going to neutral until the end of the shutdown area, that has been in my vast repertoire of lessons learned for quite some time. Even though the call wasn’t correct he is fortunate to not have suffered some damage to both his and Austin’s car. Perhaps a different shifter is in order.
