Kinda looked like maybe his throttle stuck or brakes failed or something???

If you look close at the tack it looked like either his throttle stuck or he stayed in it well past the trap. If his TORS was working the throttle should not have been the issue. Maybe he was going to see when he ran out of gear and ran out of room first ? It sounded like the brake was working. Would be interesting to know though. kviper

Actualy, After watching it again he got back in to it after the trap one or two times and then grabed a lot of brake but ran out of room. Watch the tack and the trap close.

Looks like he grabbed the brakes hard the rear track looked up and wobbled out of control

that has to be Island dragway in N.J. I have run my diesel & mustang there, the shutdown is very short but he must have had some mechanical failure. awsome video
