I saw a few that were at Ennis and Kennedale in there. That Houston track was the worse by far getting loose on the big end.

With logic like that we would never drive on 635:tex

Some things I see/assume from this video.

When a pass is blown get out of it, these guys run out bad runs and get in deeper shit. Wreckless..
A lot of Friday night ballers and rednecks with more horsepower than sense. Just cause you can buy it don't mean you can drive it.
suspension, wheelie bars or stage in power on the launch. Wheelies and slamming your chassis on the road isn't cool.
The faster you go the faster you crash. As we witnessed at L Fest.

Well, almost.. except I would take the odds on 635 over what I was seeing on that vid... how many runs do they make in a year at that track and how many had bad endings? that has to be one slick track..

I think most of those vids were test n tune or fun and grudge track night hyjinks. Over powered weekend toys out of control. It looked like 1/8th mile as well. Amateur drivers get in over their heads under 6 seconds. Most of these were in the 5's. This is the same reason they ran Pro Truck single after Frank's wipe out. The odds of a 9-10sec truck losing control were pretty good. 11-15 sec trucks ran safely all day long... There were no slow cars in that video and very few if any professional cars.

I agree 100%
Most were from guys getting out shape and getting back in it.
If it stands on the rear bumper, how about some wheelie bars?
Can't "drive" with the front tires in the air.
