Force to sit out 2007-Scelzi discusses accident on Bubba the Love Sponge-today

And I am surprised you actually think he'd let on that he was in pain or let it stop him! The man is on a mission.

E, driving the car's one thing, getting out in a timely fashion is a Must!

Steve Kotten was even able to get out of the roof hatch in the required time. With a few to spare.

Being a Paraplegic myself I would loved to see him do that.

here's a link of his car

Same here Todd. I pull myself onto my Kodiak 4 wheeler to get on, when i fall off my waverunner i pull myself back over the seat, those things are a piece of cake for me but when I think about trying to get out the hatch of a funny car, i almost laugh. He must have some kind of setup to assist him or his injury isn't complete and he has some use of his legs. If not, I would like to see how on earth he pulls himself out of there without his legs getting caught on stuff inside the cockpit. Then once you are on top of the car, what do you do just fall to the ground on your side, damn that wouldn't feel to good.

Maybe you could rig up something like Michael Night had inside Kit and go down the track with a chute on your back and hit the eject button if you start on fire.
