Bummer to see this, but fortunately it was not down track... could been a lot worse. Glad to see the drivers are ok and cars are fixable.

Seen someplace that a fuel line burst or came loose on the big daddy car which is what you see spray out under it causing it to get out of shape and head for the wall? If that was the case, thank god the fuel didn't ignite.

I know the Titan car will be fixed, not sure all the damage yet, but the car is on the way back and when we get it a part we will start the rebuild of the Titan Supra.

Yeah there were alot of mishaps out there this year, some not so bad and ones like seen in the above video.

One of the scary ones yesterday was the motorcycle that stood up on the guy, he was able to get off the bike and was ok but the bike was pretty bad.

Always sucks when a car gets banged up like that, but thankfully no one got hurt... That's the most important thing... The cars can, and certainly will be fixed...

I assumed it was tranny related since it appeared that his trans brake was not acting right and the tranny is in the area where the stuff sprayed out.

Let me rephrase that, it sounded like someone's trans brake or something was not acting right.

Saw the video earlier today, glad everyone was not injured in the accident and thankfully it did happen not to far out.
