    That is sad. There is always risk involved when you go to events like that, but you just never think it will happen. The way the drags are set up, in Zeli anyway, there is almost no risk of spectator involvement.

    Spectators were way to close at that event.

    shit does happen

    we all have or still do street race( 90%of us anyway) and blown down a two lane past traffic at 120 , we did'nt feel bad when we were doing it, when stuff like this happens- well -thats when we all start to think about the things that can go wrong. I almost feel bad for having a fast car when I see some dumb ass driving like they just stole the car they are in, then I remember dude you and a hundred guys you ran around with did the same thing 10 ,12 years ago. luck only is only good half the time.---- sorry for the rant its been a long weekend.
