    I stumbled across this on Facebook. The videographer was about the first one on the scene of this accident.

      CnB im with ya. I think they figured out the setup (which is the bump stop) to run in the slick because usually thats the condititions when its money time. And its prob too much work to switch everything around for hooked up conditions, so they just rough it through the early portion of the night, thats the cause and the flipping is the effects...

        Yes, Barton had the best car, at least before the flat. The 51 car was the other one that wasn't eating the track every corner.

          If half the field isn't even going to race, they could at least have a second set of shocks with an old school setup on there. Then they could not race and not flip.

            Right.

            Anyone could see that wasn’t what 411 was like. No ones fault, just Mother Nature. So put in a conventional set, with some give to it. Not an Owenby fan, but he literally did nothing wrong, it just bicycled like a sprint, and started flipping hard. Personally, I’m either not racing, or figuring out an old style set that will work in them conditions.
            Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

              Yeah McCarter just I think got nervous with the Silver Shark on his heals.

                Different accident, but the person shooting that was lucky.

                  wish john would have loaded after qualifying, mud broke the fan off the motor and cut power steering lines into.

                    Was a nice car, is it junk?

                      Yeah, it's a different wreck but it was too crazy not to share. Saw another video of a Super Street car taking a wild ride also.
