I think it was a Pro Comp car or Pro Stock, no Funny Car. Just as stupid to do, what appeared in the video as almost a full pass. Organizers aside, the owner/driver of the car should have known full well the potential dangers and not even attempted or attended with it. Totally asinine.

That was a lot longer than a typical NHRA style burnout. The car must have been doing well over 100 MPH when it crashed. Here is a video. No blood.

NASCAR has taken critiscism for their " debris " cautions, and limiting the top speed with restictor plate racing, safety aspect for the drivers, pit crew etc ., etc., AND the fans in the stadium.

Risk is just too great to take a chance or make a mistake not to have a caution.

Oops, yea.. didn't mean to call it a funny car.

Having now watched the video... Good God. Totally asinine is the best way to describe that incident.
