One of our own, serious crash at the strip... Walks away.

[Trackspec Motorsports]

Incredible, just found this thread and was completely floored by the video. It truly puts the real world into perspective and how this amazing sport can have very serious consequences.

Chris, the Trackspec team watched the video together and are so grateful that you walked away from this accident with little to no physical injury. It only reinforces the importance of the safety equipment planning that you performed on your build. Kudos to you on the cage, harness, and helmet since we beleive it truly saved your life or at least saved yourself from serious bodily injury. You built the car to handle the increased power and level of danger correctly, and walked away from it to tell us about it. We are glad you are ok and as others said, you are irreplacable. I ve seen 30mph accidents with a whole lot worse passenger outcomes than yours.

All too often we talk about how many RWH's our cars make but seldem do we talk about what we are doing to increase the safety in these very powerful cars. And with 600RWHP just a maggie away, its become almost too easy!

Due to Chris's accident, Trackspec Motorsports and RPM Roll Bars have all 2010 Camaro NHRA legal bolt in roll cages 15% off to further push safety in these cars with free shipping on Chromoly Cages. SHoot me a PM to discuss further if interested.

Rob and Justin's (Turbo99) Cages are in coating and should be on their way to their shops shortly.

Have fun and stay safe guys.

Glad the driver is ok, and speaks volumes to the manufacturer for putting together a top notch cage to protect the driver
