Re: Video of Biondo's win over Fletcher's close call
 

Can't tell you how many videos I have seen of the "big names" driving with the belts loose enough to fall out of...

This is what it looked like to me too. Glad I read your post here. Did not know about the removal of weight but not enough brake pressure in rear and all weight over front of these cars was my thinking. And that is what happened here. Glad all is well.

Looked at the video a few times then frame by frame. Both were on the brakes going through, front ends down. Fletcher was on the brakes before Biondo just past the finish line the car got upset. One thing comes to mind the track is only sprayed to the finish line and there may have been bumps out there. Have myself felt the car want to come around when getting on the brakes hard, has to do with how we have the corner weights set up to go straight.
Everything was fine until after the finish line.

Dad probably had a heart attack and is little pissed but everyone is OK and the cars are not wrecked. The right front almost rolled the bead, would have been a little messy.

Hey Dan you could not pay for the national exposure the Peak car got out of this! There is always something positive!

Close call. ALL that matters is the results..

Good thing He was not racing to NOT break out ..in a final, against a Spouse. NOW that would have been something..!

Sideways in the car....same as he wears his hat.....

Hopefully its a reality check....

Watch this clip at the 5:20 mark....the car makes a move identical to the run against Peter. I thought I had seen that car upset on this clip the first time I viewed it. Don't know if this is a ballast thing, but a review and inspection of the brake system, shocks and springs, as well as bump steer critique is in order. You can see the car dip and to the right with the tail starting to come around, however the driver quickly gathered it up. I would certainly think the driver would remember that run....I know I would! Please except my comments as constructive, and in no way demeaning and or placing blame

Nice Find..I was there at the starting line standing at the wall. Did not notice...That right hand move to the right was nasty...Something mechanically was (is) not Kosher...Reminded me back in 71 when I lost a Ball joint spacer @ 100 mph in a 55 Chevy with 5 lbs air in the slicks. Hope the issue never happens again..

This should help Dan and company to problem solve and get the car straightened out. And like he said, there may have been a little driver error....but now with two different drivers....they can look at the car a little bit. Move that entry in a positive direction, for whoever is behind the wheel !
