Wow that is really unfortunate. Was wondering how bad the damage was because it didn't look bad in that second video until about halfway thru. I was in shock then. Any chance of seeing the engine and anything else that can be salvaged being thrown into another drag car?
 
I would have had a talk with the driver of that other car, and thing's wouldn't have been cool.
Tell that asshole to find you another car. I know shit happens, but he has no car control and should pay for it.
 
Is the other guy going to chip $$$ on replacing it, or fixing it?

Glad every one is ok!!!
 
In the auto-x world if you cause an accident youre liable. So that other dude would have to pay for all damages. Im curious how this works out and what he pays.
 
I here all this e-thuggery...

I doubt any of you would do what you said you'd do. Under the assumption that it wasn't intentional you'd only look like a fool, end up getting your ass beat or worse. Its racing. At any point in time you could have a suspension/tire malfunction that would send you side ways into a wall or another lane/car. This is just a risk of the sport.

But even though I have never heard of said car before, it looks well put together. Sucks to see it gone but the most important part of the car survived so that is what's important. Stick all that stuff into a lighter 1g shell and go faster.
 
Wow that sucks. When a guy crosses the lane like that does he have to PAY for any of the damages to the other guys car??? Lets say they both had car insurance...Would the Insurance company cover that??
 
Insurance won't cover it. You sign all that off when you enter the park.
Thats sucks man. Yesterday I had a bad feeling about taking my slicked 1g to the track because it was way too cold. It was hardly 40* so I canceled.
That vid made me cringe thinking about it.

Sorry about your loss.
 
That was a very clean 2g, sorry to hear about the accident. Hopefully the guy is honest about it and does something to right the situation.
 
That was pretty scary to watch for sure. Glad you're ok and able to talk(and talk shit) during the second vid. I'm sure you will come back harder and stronger! It just sucks when things you can't control end up costing you TIME and MONEY. Good luck with your next move...
