Default Video: Incredible Don Walsh Jr. Crash, Fireball & Greating Driving from NMRA Finals

http://www.nmratv.com

At the NMRA Nitto Tire World Finals 2006 - Don Walsh Jr. crashed his Pro 5.0 Mustang
in the second round of qualifying when water got under the rear tires. The car, at close
to 200 mph, swerved across the track, went up on two wheels at a 45-degree angle,
and then burst into flames.

Incredible driving and instincts by Walsh allowed him to correct, save the car from impacting
the wall at over 100 mph, and to survive with just a scrape to the body work. It is one
of the most incredible videos you will ever see in the history of drag racing.

Yeah that right lane was awful. There was another car that, not only once, but twice, did a wheelie straight up in the air. For a second, I thought he was gonna flip. It was a pretty bad night in the right lane. It was good racing though, even after waiting in between cleanups.
