    It's on the WinchesterVA fb page. I wasn't there but heard it was a ucar. I wont post anything else since I can't confirm it as facts or not, but you'll see a few posts from witnesses.

    Edit* looks like the post has been removed from the tracks page.

    Yep Jimmy was partially ejected when the shoulder harness failed he passed of head and upper body injuries this should be a wake up call to all drivers to check their safety equipment. He flipped several times. and this was in a front wheel drive car.

    How does a car have a shoulder harness fail on pretty much opening night? Isn't safety the first thing that tech should be looking at when the season starts? Shame.

    my condolences to the family..

    A-alot of those front wheel drive cars are rolling death traps.
    I have seen some very well built ones, and many that should never be allowed on the racetrack.
    Not saying that is what happened here, just sayin'.
    I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.
