Post your favorite mishap, nitrous backfire, wreck etc....

Here is mine which is Nate Pritchett in his Drag Radial Camaro testing at Mason Dixon earlier this year. His trans cooler had a small hole in it and when he hit throttle wide open it sprayed everywhere and sent car completely sideways up on two wheels.

Nates the only guy I know who managed to oil down the track three times in three different cars in one day. The last two were just other peoples junk!

I'll add the note that after much ass-busting by Kenny and crew that they did make it to the final. Here is the Runner up picture from the winners circle.

this was a rather bizarre incident...a street truck at orlando test n tune...truck was smoking the right rear to 330' and finally lost it and went straight into the wall. guy got out and picked up the piece of the front end and threw it as far as he could. pic quality isn't much because of all the smoke but i tried to clean it up enough to see what was going on.

The car always seems to have catastropjic failure when I am at the races. all the white you see on the ground is synthetic trans fluid. It looked like a 100 gallons came out.

Lonnie the guy holding the scoop tray thats on fire gets my vote for badass or maybe dumbass of the year!!!
