Dumb luck he was sliding all over the track probably tapping the brake even the other guy slid around a little bit.

 

[Cliff]

Yeah, I was amazed he didn't hit the wall(s). He did have all 4 off the ground at one point.

 

[ScojoDak]

He did mash the throttle when pointed towards the starting slowing the car. Luck was involved too

 

[Professional Fan]

Imagine what went through the mind of the other guy, watching that unfold!

The lack of wheelie bars on an expensive, beautiful car like that astounds me.... but then, I live in PA where motorcyclists can ride helmetless

But he did not hit any cones.

 

[Dragracer]

Had to clean his firesuit 3 times to get it all cleaned out.

It’s might be a rule I went to the yellow bullet nationals at Cecil County Dragway at Labor Day there was s class big block no time wheelie bars not allowed.

Safety equipment not allowed? Sheesh

Wheelie bars just help ya in a lot of ways they might prevent huge cleanups what do you mean by safety equipment

 

[stitcherbob]

I always considered them safety equipment or else you have this

See what you are saying personally I would want one for a lot of reasons. Do you know if he was ok? If you can and want to you should go to the yellow bullet nats it’s always on Labor Day last year there were eighth mile pro mods and a lot of other cool door cars I heard one guy came from Albert Canada

"Bailey’s car has a knack for towering top end wheelstands, as evidenced by a recent video we featured here on DRAGZINE from Hub City Dragway, where only the presence of a set of wheelie bars kept it from being the catastrophic crash that was to come. "

here's another one

[Porkchop]

Driving above his head...........He got lucky!

 

[mikebcurve]

A great save would have been staying out of the opponents lane.

More like dumb ass! That was stupid to pedal it when he was that far out of the groove.
