Guys,

I got some bad news a short time ago. Big Daddy's supra lost control and crashed into Titan. Good news is that the drivers are OK. I am sure they will be back at it again and even better.

Thats horrible. I hope everyone is ok mentally and physically. I hope to see him back on the track very soon!

 

Horrible wreck. Thank God everyone is ok. Im sure they both will be back at it in no time.

 

Guy I know just txd Gary (titian) driver and he said he was fine and car wasn't to bad, not sure on big daddy's car though.

Sht like that make me want a cage. But then I wouldn't be a street car!

 

wow... that hurts to watch. I'm glad to hear both drivers are ok.

damn. that really sucks.

 

oww not good, any idea on how this unfortunate acco happened yet .

 

sorry to see that..

 

Looks Like a line under the car blew n got on the right rear tire, Dam shame.....

 

That is exactly what happend... from the pressure of the "fluid" coming out, I would say it was fuel, nitrous or a transmission line but I'm not sure. I originally thought the axle broke but maybe the fluid was the cause. Though, it could be from the dump tube as well...

That really could've been worse, thank the Lord it wasn't.

WoW Just seen dig daddy at pbir and he was moving . Titan doesn't look that bad Dig Daddy looks like he's going 3/4 .What track was this at?

 

dam thats sucks! glad both driver are ok

 

WOW, glad both drivers are ok

 

Glad to see that everyone is ok.

 

Bad crash, glad everyone is ok. How come it looks like BigDaddy left early but the red light came on the Titan side?

 

Jay I'm gonna guess that he left before the starter started the clock..

 

Ok, that makes sense.

 

local driver Gary White! Watch this video from adrl last season him driving the pro scion.

We did not find any evidence of fluids on the track or on the underside of the car. What is being suggested is that the CO2 use for boost control either broke a line or ruptured the diaphragm in the wastegate.
Anyway what's important is that no one was hurt. Cars can be rebuilt another day but human life is precious.

 

Chris,

Thank you for the clarification . I don't personally know the full setup and location of everything on the car but now that you eliminated the option of fluid, it makes more sense that a line ruptured. Because if the wastegate diaphragm ruptured, I can't see it discharging that much CO2 out the dump tube when the only way out is through the gide through the housing for the valve, which you and I both know is a machined fit.

But, then agian, I wasn't there and I have been wrong twice before

I am just glad everyone was ok...
