    Watch close and you will see smoke come out from under him a little before he loses it. I'm guessing oil dumped out, hence the smoke from the hot headers, and lubed up his rear tires and it went out from under him like he hit ice.

    I was trying to catch the timer to see what the mustang ran....looked like the maverick was real close to him....lucky for both that the maverick was not out in front by a nose.....could have taken out both cars.

    I hope that he is okay.
    He was running a lot of rear tire compared to that
    '85/'86 GT that was spanking him down the track.
    I couldn't see the smoke that was mentioned in
    the video.
    That disproves what my junior high driver's ed. teacher
    told us 22 yrs. ago. Cars can flip over without being
    tripped on something.
