[Bubba]

It's been decided. Full stop.

Yeah...Robert up in smoke - This race is OVER! Wait a minute.......

It's been decided. Full stop.

That was insane. Cruz better check his pants after that one. I have never seen a FC carry a wheelie that far down the track and for that long.

Cant say Cruz doesn't have a set of.....

Spoiler alert

 

[stitcherbob]

spoiler, wheelie bar and strong body structure....the whole enchilada!

 

[PJ]

Holy crap, never seen wheelstand that far down track in a funny car. Several other seemed to have small wheelstands down track as well. Is there a bump or the swept back headers causing the lift

 

[stitcherbob]

just watch, you will see that the NHRA will limit swept back headers next year.....in the name of safety

The body (partially) staying on the chassis saved his butt for sure. Definitely one of the wildest things I've ever seen!

 

[J]

He had double wheelie bars,what if he only had one wheelie bar like most do? Think that could have been ugly

 

[.]

Wow. One of the most craziest runs ever. Amazing. Lucky fans who were in attendance to witness it. 20 years from now they'll be saying "Cruz's wheelstand? I was there."

Glad Cruz is ok; I hope he gets his low back MRI'd and checked out.

And Cruz said they weren't even the most laid back headers that he runs. That was just unreal. Front end wayyy up through the lights!

I was thinking "ban" but my fingers were typing "limit"

next year, the only headers allowed:

much, much safer!

Easy fix lay the back 2 pipes down and the front 2 pipes up problem solved
or at least try it whats a set of headers cost ?

 

[HEMI6point1]

That was just about the craziest thing I have ever seen.....

Then Cruz had to go make a disparaging comment about the NHRA.
