The is the story of the weekend. Round one, we've got Tony Schumacher. We're racing out of the 13th spot. Terry jumps out with a HUGE hole shot advantage.
Just about the 400ft mark, the rear end fails causing engine to over rev and knock the burst panels out of the injector. New safety equipment works as designed, killing the fuel and deploying the chutes. Race over!
Schumacher drives around us while experiencing his own set of problems.
Tony would later say that there was no way he was going to catch Terry.
