Ed Longhanyjust hit the wall. He is ok. Car not so much!

Floyd Staggs · 03-16-2018, 08:44 AM

That's a shame. Is it because the track is too cold?

It appeared he lined up out of the grove and the car launched hard towards the center, when it came down he over corrected and went straight into the wall. Also there was a puddle of antifreeze in the staging lanes for the left lane not sure if it came from his car or not but that could have been a contributing factor. Damn shame either way hate to see someone tear up there car.

It looked eerily similar to the pics of John Grays posted in this thread...except this one didnt turn out as well.

Hate to see that for anyone, and just saw the one in super comp as well. Tough deal today...

Thank You James I agree. Kenney Kelley

Am I the only one who can't understand a word this new announcer is saying?

He takes a bit to get used to. He's one of the normal announcers for PDRA.
