Default Re: Scary Moments in Your Racing Career?

Ok It was 1967 when i had just put a brand new cam in My 3 speed 55 chevy stocker . I rented the track and was testing .the first run was awesome so i came back to check over all , then the next run i left the line and was just getting ready to shift when all heck broke lose the clutch exploded and parts came up through the whole car and literally smashed the crap out of my right foot . i moved to the finished line and the owner showed up and i was really hurt . so he called my College room mate to come and pick me up , ok so i missed the next season of basket ball withthis problem , any way i had a cast on my foot for 3 months . Darn I would do the same thing again it was a really quick race car then . Lol at me for remembering 41 years ago at Bee line drag way.
