Tech inspector should be hung by his thumbs for not checking for TWO throttle return springs per carb, this is the ONLY reason we need them



The elimination round at South Coast Raceway's 'Wild Bunch Wars' event between Dean Cleary in the Pontiac and Jason Duncan in the green Ford Capri.

 Jason's throttle got stuck wide open on the burnout, sending him across the track, careering into the back of a stationary Pontiac, then into a 180-degree spin where he proceeded back towards the start line with the throttle still wide open.

 Jason collected the start line barrier and water connection before careering through a fence behind the start line and into a row of trees. The engine finally shut down when it expired while still under full throttle.

  1. I'm sure that extra spring would have solved all of this! LOL
