    Timeslip and Vid were from my second pass at Orangeburg dragstrip Sunday afternoon...brand new track and the first time it was open to the public, they did a great job prepping the track BUT as the pic below shows this is what could happen if you got out of the groove on the big end. The driver and car are from my hometrack and were a few cars ahead of me in staging...he drifted ever so slightly out of the groove and said it was like hitting a patch of ice, overcorrected and found both walls before coming to a stop...driver had some minor injuries and the car is a total except motor and tranny.
