Jay and the Hurst Hemi Under Glass... and the wreck



Just a bad choice of location, because the bowl shape of the track meant that they had to slow down quickly from the wheelstand and then turn to avoid hitting the farside wall, and then the slicks hooked on the soft tall sidewall, and flip!

  1. Don't forget that car carries a locked differential.that combined with speed and sharpness of the turn guarantee this result.

    1. Good point... I had forgot... that sharp turn and the bounce in the car had me think right away about the tall soft sidewall and how it would buckle under and help pitch the car over
