Default Re: Hemmings Muscle Machines SHOOTOUT

There were alot of great race cars there for Nostalgia Drag Day. Street cars (DOT class) in the 8's!! The last 4 cars before eliminations started were alcohol and nitrous burning cars (I am not sure of the class, but I believe pro mod?). They were both running in the low to mid 6's. During the first race one of the cars (Corvette) lost control at about the 1000 foot mark. It went head on into the wall at about 150 mph. The car blew apart on contact. Emergency crews were there for about 10-15 minutes and they still hadn't gotten the driver out. Does anybody know how he is?
