Whoops... need more weld! (vid)

lol,that sucks.

I couldn’t believe that his car ran a 6.40 in the 1/8th in the other video he’s got up of the previous run.

pathetic!

i have to say i have felt his pain… although mine didn’t actually come out of the car it just turned to a pile of scrap steel

great video!!

I am actually scared he didn’t have a helmet on - if it was as fast as it looked like it should have been…

HAHHA… and mythbusters said it wasnt possible…

the mythbusters experiment was also very different then what happened here

just the weight of the mythbusters vehical in motion could snap the cable they used. this car did a full launch on slicks … thats a HELL of alot more energy that this suspension has to absorb (instantly too mind you)

I suppose, but it looks like it just fell off… I dont know, there was no drama, just… WHAM… Not even any crunching or ripping sounds, kinda disappointing.
