It is really sad that Mark lost his life over street racing. One thing that was really curious to me was that the driver with roll bar died of neck injuries and the passenger (no roll bar) had minor injuries. I would have expected injuries/death to be the other way around. I guess that there is no way to make predictions on injury/mortality when a car is rolling over and over at high speed.

I have my theories on this issue, but they are only theories. My brother had 5 pt racing belts in his car.. The really good kind like they use in nascar racing. The belt goes between your legs and over both your shoulders.

Karrie says she was wearing her belt. She was thrown out of the car though. The passenger seat belts were still buckled when the police arrived. I personally, don't see how she could of gotten thrown with those belts on.. just because of how the belts were. Whatever happened, I believe the only reason she is alive, is because I personally don't think the belts were on, which caused her to get thrown. Anyone that knows my brother, knows though, that you cannot ride in his car without wearing the belts. He was very particular on this issue.
So it kinds of remains a mystery to me, I think her getting thrown from the car is the reason she is alive though. Just my theory though, since on this subject, I will probably always be in the dark.
