There was an event called No Prep Mayhem at Kansas International Dragway last weekend and we can tell you that there was no exaggeration in the name because right off the bat there were cars running into stuff, bouncing off of stuff, and fighting their way down the track between the guardrails. Of the “headliners” at the event, Daddy Dave Comstock and his Goliath 2.0 Nova was the big one. This was the car’s first race back in the spotlight and it was ready to take on all comers, including the hairy sounding Mustang that he faces down in this video.
Being a no-prep race, the track is the big equalizer and as you will see, neither guy went down without some drama. Comstock was on and off the throttle actually pulling a bit of a down track wheelie as he was pedaling and the guy in the Mustang was having his own problems before he decided to whack the throttle at the wrong time and then things got bad.
For reasons known to the driver, he mashed the gas quickly past the finish line and the car immediately headed across the track, running into the guardrail in center punch fashion. The car glanced off the rail and coasted slowly down the track. This was the second wreck we have seen from last weekend (at different races) where a driver on a pretty much lost run whacked the gas and caused their own major problem. Wailing on the gas pedal when the car is rolling along is a recipe for badness. We saw it in Atlanta and we’re seeing a mirror image of that situation right here.
Lifting and coasting sucks way less than rebuilding the front end of your car. Thanks to Urban Hillbilly Action Videos for being on the scene for this one.
No Prep Racing! The quick and easy way to ruin all the time and money you have put into your car.
What’s next “Rain & Slicks Racing”, this is getting out of hand. A lot of cool cars are getting wadded up for this.
I LOVE No-Prep racing!
NOT.
No sympathy for people without common sense.
Hey.You just wrecked.
Let’s smash up cool cars for clicks on the the web…..
How stupid is that?
These people are almost as smart as a bag of fucking rocks. Much like the Street Outlaw crowd.
