Capps Crashes!!!!!!!!!!! (1 Viewer)

[.]

Thanks for the video link Brian Wood!!

The video shows Capps letting off the throttle when the front end went sky high however, it’s hard to tell from the video if Capps tried to pedal it on it’s way back down. (to soften the landing) It sounds like he did but it’s hard to tell because the car in the other lane was also on and off the throttle.

I’m glad Capps is OK and I hope Gaynor gets it fixed for next year.

ouch!

Yeah, I'd say that's a pretty serious "tweak" alright. Glad to hear Ron's OK. Cars can be fixed or replaced. A little harder to do that with flesh and blood.

I have a feeling wheelie bars are going to go on that car!

The car is in the shop and is going back to its owner and Jennifer Luna is going to drive in CIFCA in 07 then move to N/FC.
