[BBIGG BLOCK 396]

John force is a really down to earth guy.He was at the Houston Autorama in 1999 and I got to meet and talked to him for about 30 minutes.I had my 1967 Chevelle in the show and he was checking it out pretty close,we let him come through the ropes to look at it closely.We took some pictures of him there but for some reason that roll of film was defective and the pictures were total garbage.He used to have a 67 Chevelle SS as a young man.He loves hot rods.I went to watch the Nationals at Houston Raceway park 2 years after the autorama and he remembered me as the guy with the Blue 67 SS Chevelle.He couldn't recall my name but he remembered me owning the car.I wish him a speedy recovery and I agree I think he will be back for a little bit then give someone else a chance to pilot the car.I am just glad he was not hurt anymore than he was.From viewing the video it looks like to me that debris hit the tire on Johns car causing the destruction process.All it takes is just a little debris to tear one of those tires up and at those speeds with that much torque anything can happen.I am sure we will hear much more from NHRA officials as to the cause of the accident.
