That was on the NHRA . They knew Englishtown was short , they seen what happened in the West accident , so what do they do. They put a camera boom at the end of the trackI was as at ETown when Johnny hit the guardrail and rode it unconscious to the sandpit. That was the scariest crash I ever witnessed in person and so glad he’s been around since and the career he’s had.
I just wish Scott Kallitta had made it through his eerily similar incident…
I was at Maple Grove in September after Jimmy Nix was killed that May, back in 1994. I liked to go down to the scoreboards and try to photograph the fuelers at the top end. Up against the fence , I waved down a Safety Safari member on an ATV and pointed at the small pile of hay bales against the foot of the scoreboard posts and asked if that was the NHRA’s answer to Nix’s accident. He shrugged his shoulders and took off.That was on the NHRA . They knew Englishtown was short , they seen what happened in the West accident , so what do they do.

I was really hopimg medlin was going to be with cruz, not sure how it will turn out nowremember cruz announced medlen was going to help his new, young CC?, but then apparently medlen was under contract with paul lee?
cruz probably needed to find someone to guide his CC while the season gets underway.......will see if JW is in cruz's pit @ bradenton.
Wonder who haddock will have this year if he is racing??Saw Medlen in Paul Lee pit, West in Cruz pit
