Awesome Video: Todd Moyer Saves His Drag Car From Certain DoomBy Brian Lohnes Posted 02/23/10
ADRL racer Todd Moyer earns the BangShift.com unintentional stunt driver of the week award for saving his freshly updated race car from certain doom in this video clip. We got tipped off to it while hanging out over at YellowBullet.com and just had to share it here. This is an epic save.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Having no 'chute heading toward a catch fence in a freshly updated car qualifies as desperate times.

By spinning the thing out before heading into the sand and the catch fence he probably saved himself 30K or more. The nose of that car is one piece of carbon fiber, and hitting the net would have torn up all kinds of stuff at the front of the car. HMP is a short track, even for an 1/8 mile. He was still moving at a good clip down there at the end.
Spinning a drag car normally results in roof damage. :)

Looks like he did a little "Duke boys" manuever to me.
