I turned on the TV just as that happened. Crazy accident!

 

[crusada]

Yea it happend under caution. Its like how seriously how do you mess that up. I will say I guess it goes to show thats what happens when you get in a hurry.

Craziest thing I have seen in racing...

Lol at the "master Twitter" " All the drivers should race with their phone so they can tweet updates.

I want you to go out and HIT THE PACECAR!

 

[snowborder714]

Well, the driver had something wrong with his car (they played some of the radio contact) and something gave just before he went sliding up the bank into the truck.

Alright so I'm a NASCAR noob but what's a jet drier and why is it holding 200 gallons of jet fuel?

 

[snowborder714]

Think helicopter jet engine that powers a giant blower to clean debris off the track. Jet engines use a ton of fuel, hence the massive amount being carried. The drier is towed behind a truck.

They use them to dry or blow off the track of speedy dry (put down due to an engine failure of a car which brought out the caution)

And I'm sorry, but I just do NOT like Juan Pablo

 

[crimsondragon]

Fascinating. Screw this race, I'm more interested in the jet dryers. I would love to take one apart.

 

[crusada]

well he says something was broke problem with this is. He new it was broke before it happend and he still proceeded to run 120 MPH not only that then he went below the line. Guess whats down there oh yea the crap that the blower was blowing off the track. So not only was something broke and he was rushing he dropped down and got shit all over his tires to come back up on the track and cause himself to spin.

^^You got that wrong, man. I by no means like Juan F.a.glo the least bit but something with the drivetrain or rear end was messed up. Couldn't figure out what, but this is the DAYTONA 500! Of coarse if the team doesn't see a problem after checking, they are going to continue. Later on in the race, his team mate had a similar issue. Probably something going on with something with those two cars.

Also, he was supposed to be on the yellow line. That's the rule, while getting up to speed to catch the field under yellow, you have to stay down there.

But non of this matters because this was just released---> Juan Pablo's car had orders from Optimus Prime to take out the Jet drier (aka Starscreem).

 

[crusada]

HAHHAHAHAHHA that is awesome I guess the way I look at it is if he new he had issues I dang sure wouldnt have been in a hurry to catch back up. The guy knows his stuff even if the crew didnt see anything ida told them to look again. He felt something wrong with the car.

 

[PIMking]

He said he felt a vibration when he got on the gas, now throughout a race you will hear someone complain about a vibration at least 10 times. It could be something as a loose lug nut or a bent wheel, he had no idea that it was something that would cause such a problem. I'm sure you have something on your car that should be replaced or fixed but it's not something that you think will cause a huge problem.

There is a jet dryer at e-town (raceway park).
